Profile

Demogorgon is a central playfield toy/mechanism featured in Stern's Stranger Things pinball machines (both Premium and higher-end editions). Introduced as a ball-eating toy integrated with screen ramp and drop targets, it serves as a primary game objective and multiball target. The toy's distinctive mouth mechanism design has become a reference point for discussing ball-eating toy consistency in modern pinball, with players noting its resemblance to an artichoke in appearance.
