‘Stranger Things’ star David Harbour may show up to Halloween Horror Nights... with your help

ORLANDO, FLORIDA — Calling all ‘Stranger Things’ fans in Orlando: get on Twitter NOW!

After Universal Orlando announced that Netflix's hit show will join the lineup of haunted houses at this year's Halloween Horror Nights, local theme park blog Orlando Informer made a proposal via Twitter to actor David Harbour, who plays Police Chief Jim Hopper:

"@DavidKHarbour how many retweets would it take for you to walk through Stranger Things at #HHN28 with us?"

(tweet)

Surprisingly, Harbour responded:

“300k. I get to take eleven eleven year old fans, and I get to dress like eleven. And if it runs post Halloween, I’d prefer us to go on November 11th, at 11pm.”

Of course, Universal Orlando Resort jumped in on the action with an enticing offer.

“And we in turn will make exactly eleven posts about it on Twitter.”

Challenge accepted, Hopper.  I for one would love the chance to see him carrying around a box of Eggo Waffles and screaming like a girl. 

As of Friday morning, he had around 27,000 retweets. But since Halloween Horror Nights is still a few months away, there's plenty of time to make it happen.

*Note: Per Orlando Informer, retweet Harbour’s tweet so they can keep an accurate count.*
