TORONTO – Netflix is making Toronto’s all-night contemporary arts festival a little stranger on Saturday.
In the lead-up to the second season of “Stranger Things” next month, the streaming service says it will recreate the world of the Upside Down for Nuit Blanche.
The interactive experience will send visitors through Toronto’s underground walkway near Osgoode Hall, where they will have to slip into hazmat suits to protect them from a maple syrup-like substance – a nod to Netflix’s other series, “Riverdale.”
Netflix says there will be trademark images from the show’s alternate dimension, including trees with bikes growing out of them, along with elements from other Netflix properties.
“Stranger Things” follows the disappearance of a young boy and the supernatural mysteries that begin to affect his small town.
Netflix says the installation was created specifically for Nuit Blanche, which runs from sunset to sunrise Saturday with an array of free art projects on display around the city.
