Scary Latter-day Saint “Stranger Things” Titles

2303

What are the scariest things you’ll encounter in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? Well, we tried to come up with the best ones, and then “Strangify” them so that they would look like the title of this summer’s favorite TV show “Stranger Things.”

We used a free tool by designer Nelson Cash and had a ton of fun. And with season three just announced, it felt like the perfect time.

It’s amazing how spooky church can seem with the right background and font. We hope you enjoy!

Few words have the power to strike fear into the hearts of nonmembers like “three hours of church.”

What two-word church phrases do you think deserve the “Stranger Things” treatment?
