    I’m talking about the wackos who actually came up with the Montauk Project stories / personas, over the 80s and 90s, at various conspiracy / ufo conventions, and then eventually formalized it into a book.

    Al Bielek, Preston Nichols, Peter Moon / Vincent Barbarick, Stewart Swerdlow.

    I’ve never even seen the vast majority of the show, beyond an episode or two… three? … from the first season, and I quickly realized it was heavily based off of the Montauk story.

    I’m not talking about specifically being disgusted by the Duffer bros.

    I was so disgusted from diving into the story the show was based around, and the people behind that original story…

    … again, before the show ever existed…

    … that I just never wanted anything to do with anything related to that story, including basically a tv adaptation of it.
