It's been 10 years since Stranger Things premiered on July 15, 2016, immersing viewers in '80s nostalgia and encouraging a resurgence of interest in both Dungeons & Dragons and Kate Bush. To mark the occasion, Netflix has released a 26-minute video of the cast looking back at their experience making the series — and for many of them, growing up across its five seasons.

Taking turns sitting under the iconic alphabet wall from Stranger Things' first season, the YouTube video features a slew of cast members going through behind-the-scenes Polaroid photos and reminiscing. These include Winona Ryder, David Harbour, Finn Wolfhard, Millie Bobby Brown, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Joe Keery, Sadie Sink, Cara Buono, Noah Schnapp, Maya Hawke, Priah Ferguson, Brett Gelman, and Jamie Campbell Bower.

The actors share a few stories and a lot of praise for their castmates (as well as Stranger Things creators the Duffer Brothers), generally just spreading good vibes all around.
