   Summary

   After the abrupt departure of his best friend, Mike Wheeler, Will Byers is sent a letter, inviting him to attend Hogwarts, the school of witchcraft and wizardry. At this new school, Will and Mike seem to be mischief magnets.

   Among these "mischievous" instances, they come across a strange girl, whom they find to be honing many "inconsistencies".
