‘Stranger Things’ cast pranks fans at wax museum with Jimmy Fallon

Madame Tussaud’s “Stranger Things” attraction came to life Wednesday.

The young cast of Netflix’s hit sci-fi series teamed up with Jimmy Fallon to prank unsuspecting visitors at the Times Square venue on last night’s episode of “The Tonight Show.”

“Everyone get in the zone — get in the zen wax zone,” says Gaten Matarazzo, 16, as he and co-stars Millie Bobby Brown, 15; Finn Wolfhard, 16; Noah Schapp, 14; Sadie Sink, 17; and Caleb MacLaughlin, 17; freeze in place.

Fallon, 44, also joined in on the fun fan prank — and he did it in costume as Barb, the beloved character who infamously died in the series’ first season.

As the Madame Tussauds’ photographer counts down to snap a fan pic, Brown sneaks up behind one smiling couple who only notice the wax figures are moving when the actress screams in their ears. The guests are unsurprisingly surprised, and Matarazzo gives them a big hug.

The third season of “Stranger Things” is premiering July 4th on Netflix.

The wax museum appearance isn’t the only NYC promotional event for the series. An ’80s-themed takeover of Deno’s Wonder Wheel Amusement Park at Coney Island — which includes the iconic Wonder Wheel and Tilt-a-Whirl rides — is being “Stranger-ified” to celebrate the new episodes from July 5 to 7.
