The series is executive produced by Matt and Ross Duffer, Shawn Levy, and Dan Cohen, with Eric Robles serving as showrunner.

The animated feature 'In Your Dreams' tells the story of Stevie and her brother Elliot, who enter the realm of dreams to find 'The Sandman' and save their parents' marriage.
The film is directed by Alex Woo and Erik Benson, former Pixar creators, and features stunning visuals, including a fantastical world called Breakfast Town.
