PLOT

SEASON 3

Jessica Walker lived a relatively normal life in Indianapolis, Indiana. She had parents who loved her, an older brother who protected her, and friends who adored her. She went to school, got good grades, and was on the cheer team. She had everything she'd ever need to have a successful life. Then everything changed in a heartbeat. It was just another night with the Walker family. They were out to dinner celebrating Joseph getting accepted into law school and Jessica graduating high school. But what they didn't expect was a car running a red light, slamming into the side of their van. The accident took Jessica's parents away and left her brother with no memories of his sister.

Her life was now far from normal.

Jessica tried to continue living in her hometown, but it was too much for her. There were just too many painful memories left there. So she packed up her bags and moved to a small town to live with her cousin. Dustin Henderson was over the moon to have his cousin live with him, but he knew she wouldn't be like he remembered. Jessica had been through too much for her fun-loving self to stay. But Dustin was determined to protect whatever happiness was left in his cousin's life, even if that meant lying to her. He wouldn't let Jessica know about the strange things that happened in Hawkins, Indiana while she started over.

Little did he know that was a mistake.

Jessica was barely in town for a few days when Dustin took her to Scoops Ahoy, where she met Robin Buckley and Steve Harrington. Robin and Jessica instantly hit it off, but Steve Harrington drove her crazy with all of his questions and failed conversations. Things were starting to feel a bit more normal, which is exactly what she needed. But everything changed the day she met Billy Hargrove at the pool. He pursued her every day since then, refusing to take "no" for an answer. It soon led to Jessica giving in and accepting a date with the boy. Little did she know that Billy's mind was no longer his own.

Soon Jessica was dragged into some very strange things.

SEASON 4

After dealing with the Mind Flayer, Jessica Walker desperately hoped the only thing she'd have to worry about now was college. She was far from wrong. Jessica was lucky to find a job that would make her easy money to save and start in a few semesters. Despite everything that happened over the summer, she was happy. Well, as happy as she could be. But all that changed when Dustin Henderson ran through the front door in a panic. He needed her help.

And Jessica wouldn't let him down.

Now Jessica, Steve, and Robin were dragged along by Dustin once again to face an unknown threat. One that seemed to be more powerful than anything they've ever faced. But first, they had to clear Eddie Munson's name, who was being framed for the murder of Chrissy Cunningham. Jessica didn't know Eddie very well, only through the stories that Dustin told her. But as they searched for evidence to prove his innocence, Jessica came to a blood-chilling conclusion.

The worst was yet to come.

What Jessica didn't expect was for a familiar face to come to Hawkins, but not in the way she expected. A new law firm was opening in the small town, owned and operated by Joseph Walker. After discovering that he still had no clue who she was, Jessica's life spiraled downhill. Negative emotions overtake her positive ones, leaving her sad and angry. Little did she know that would make her the perfect candidate for their enemy.

Vecna was coming for Jessica.
