The German thrilling sci-fi TV series, Dark, is officially returning to Netflix and proves to be darker than Stranger Things.

After the successful endings of Dark season 1 and 2, fans anticipate the return of the series for the third season.

Dark follows the story of interconnected families in a little town, Winden, in Germany, in the year 1980. The series becomes complicated because of the time travel complexities related to the disappearance of a child, Mikkel. The disappearance unraveled the twisted secrets of the four families and their constant battle between good and evil.

Mikkel who disappeared in 2019 landed in 1986 and married Jonas’ mother, which makes him the father of Jonas. Dreadful as it gets, Jonas is romancing Mikkel’s sister, which makes her Jonas’ aunt.

As the story progresses, the nuclear power in Winden is responsible for the time travel. The teen version of Jonas constantly travels back and forth through time to save Winden from a nuclear apocalypse. Jonas believed that if he could go back to the time of his father’s suicide, he could stop the events. However, Dark season 2 ended with Jonas’ disappearance.
