The two bosom buddies conspire together to set up a trap to bring the monster to them by using fresh blood as a lure. This makes sense since we have yet to see someone during the day get mysteriously whisked off into the ‘Upside Down’ yet. Nancy also notices that the monster only really seems to attack at night, suggesting that it’s possibly a nocturnal predator.

However, this further confirms the theory that Barb is probably pretty dead since her blood was what drew the monster to her. She compares the monster to a shark due to its appearance whenever blood is spilled, which allowed me to give myself a pat on the back since I had theorized that after viewing the second episode. When Jonathan and Nancy go back to her house, Nancy is the one to start connecting the dots behind the monster’s behavior. Luckily, Nancy survives this encounter with the monster. However, even as it’s right near her, she managed to run a good 20 feet or so to the tree portal without it noticing her.

Whether it’s due to the actual volume or pitch of the breathing, we’re not sure. In the last episode we figured out that sudden sounds can catch it off guard, but the sound of Nancy’s breathing doesn’t seem to register. Nancy, in the meantime, is trying to escape from the monster. Jonathan was frantically trying to find her and discovers the slowly closing tree where Nancy had crawled into. Last we left off, Nancy was being chased by the monster in its dimension after trying to find where a dying deer had been dragged to. We also get some more insight into who ‘Eleven’ is and how she is connected to the monster’s ability to traipse between its dimension and what we perceive as our “regular” dimension. Like the episode’s title name ‘Chapter Six: The Monster’, we get some more theories that surround the general existence and behavior of the monster present in the world of Stranger Things. For this episode’s recap, I am going to focusing on the two primary things that were discussed just to keep it short and sweet.
