Burger King is getting prepped for season 3 ofStranger Thingswith a spooky new offering.
Starting June 21, the fast food chain will introduce an “Upside Down” whopper to mimic the Upside Down-world in the popular Netflix series.
The special, limited edition burger will have all the same ingredients as the classic whopper — beef patty, sesame seed bun, mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, and sliced onion. Only, the whole thing will be served, you know, upside down!
There’s only one downside to it all: the limited-edition whopper will only be available at 11 (pun maybe intended) select cities, in Miami, Houston, Boston, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Dallas, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York.
Of course, Burger King has you covered if you’renotin one of the select locationS. Through DoorDash, they’re also offering a “Hopper Meal” (named after David Harbour’s character Jim Hopper). That includes a whopper, small drink, and small fries.
All customers who order a “Hopper Meal” through DoorDash with code “STRANGER” before June 20 will also gain access to exclusiveStranger Thingscontent from Season 3.

This isn’t the firstStranger Things-related food offering coming this summer.Baskin-Robbins is debutingStranger Things-themed ice cream, andNew Coke is even coming back,despite being a flop 30 years ago, because the new reason takes place in the same year it made its debut.
In March, Netflix dropped the first full-length trailer for this summer’s highly anticipated third season ofStranger Things. And it seems our favorite group of bike-riding, Demogorgon-fighting kids will be battling a whole new monster in Hawkins, Indiana: their teenage years.
Set to the Who’s “Baba O’Riley,” the trailer follows Eleven, Dustin, Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin), Will (Noah Schnapp) and Max (Sadie Sink) as they navigate their way through the summer of ’85 in the mysterious Midwestern town.
All may look well, as the gang hits the typical ’80s hangout spots like the mall, the pool, and the county fair. But there are big changes afoot. “We’re not kids anymore,” says Mike in the clip. “I mean, what did you think? We’re just going to sit in my basement all day?”
