Okay, hold onto your Eggos — because you can now sleep inside the actual Stranger Things Byers House and yes, the Christmas light wall is 100% real and fully functioning. If you're a fan of '80s nostalgia, eerie vibes, and making your Instagram followers feral with envy, this is your next must-book trip.
Here’s the full rundown (with some juicy details you won’t get on the Airbnb listing 👀):
🔦 Welcome to Hawkins… Kind Of
While the house is technically in Fayetteville, Georgia, it’s the house used for exterior shots of the Byers’ home in Seasons 1–3 of Stranger Things. You know, where Will vanishes. Where Joyce goes full Christmas light detective. Where the Upside Down first creeped into our lives.
Now? It’s an immersive, decked-out Airbnb experience—like stepping straight into a scene from the show. Only this time, you’re the main character.
📸 Insta-Worthy Highlights
The Christmas Light Wall
THE wall. The alphabet. The glow. It's all here. And yes—it lights up. Bring your walkie-talkies and channel your inner Joyce.Jonathan’s Room
Retro records. Grungy 80s energy. You’ll want to lie on the bed and journal about your mysterious crush while a Smiths song plays in the background.Will’s Room
Soft, artsy, D&D-loving comfort vibes. This room feels like a hug from Season 1 Will before everything went sideways.The Upside Down Bunk Room
This one’s for the brave. Tendrils on the walls, flickering lights, and pure supernatural energy. Creepy? Yes. Cool? Absolutely.Retro Touches EVERYWHERE
CRT TVs. Bicycles for riding around like you're late to save Hawkins. Even the coffee mugs look like something Hopper would use.
Don’t worry—you’re not actually trapped in the Upside Down.

The house has:
A 75” Samsung Frame TV (stream Netflix, duh)
Full kitchen and laundry
Strong WiFi (TikTok edits, here you come)
Central A/C — because Georgia gets HOTTER than Steve in Season 4
💸 So… How Much?
This isn’t exactly the Wheeler basement, so be prepared to splurge (worth it, btw):
Weekdays: ~$350–$450 per night
Weekends: ~$700–$750
Sleeps up to 6 people — so grab your besties, split the cost, and make it a Hellfire Club girl trip.
👉 Book early on Airbnb — it does sell out months in advance.
đź‘€ Little Known Flex: You Can Also Invest in the House?!
Plot twist: You can actually own a piece of the Byers House through a platform called Arrived Homes.
For as little as $100, fans have bought shares in the house and get a cut of the rental income.
Yes, you can say “I literally own the Stranger Things house” at brunch.
You’re welcome.
