The Upside Down is a mysterious alternate dimension that exists parallel to the human world in the Stranger Things universe. It's a realm marked by near pitch-black darkness, inhabited by creatures like the Demogorgon, and is often referred to as a place of decay and death. This dimension is a dark reflection of our world, containing the same locations and infrastructure, but with a sinister twist. It's also known to affect the electromagnetic field of the human world, causing electricity and electronics to malfunction. The Demogorgon, the infamous monster from Stranger Things, uses this dimension exclusively, traversing it to move around undetected.
