I live less than ten minutes from that mall. I explored it a few times and got to see them film a little bit. It used to be the place to be in the 80's and 90's and I pretty much equate it with my childhood. Now it's pretty much abandoned and they found a dead body in the food court not too long ago. Also, very random fact, but the mall is on Pleasant Hill Rd in Duluth, GA which is also sung about in "The Alien" by Manchester Orchestra. I spend a ton of time studying in that area and it's now played a role in my favorite TV show and favorite album of last year. I feel privileged. :)
If you guys want to check out some Stranger Things/80's-esque music, you should really check out The Midnight Trailer for their new album "Kids" out on the 21st First two songs off the new album, next two are from their debut album "Endless Summer"
