**Season One: The Beginning** *A grim, steady rain drums on the roof, sending rivulets down the windowpanes. In Mike's basement, lit by a dull bulb, stands a girl. She wears only an oversized hospital gown, her head nearly shaved clean, making her look boyish. Eleven trembles as she stares at the three teenagers—Mike, Lucas, and Dustin. Will has been missing three days, the search has gone nowhere. Now their friend's fate might rest with this silent, frightened girl, whom Mike has decided to trust.*
