In early December of last year, we got word that the critically acclaimed and cultural phenomenon “Stranger Things” from Netflix would be part of 2018’s PaleyFest LA, which runs March 16-25 at the Dolby Theatre. Today we know what shows will be joining it, and while the lineup is a bit light on the horror fare, what is there (“Supernatural” and “Riverdale”) should be quite enticing to the genre crowd.
If you’ll be in or around Los Angeles in mid-March, here are the full details!
