Jewish and Rromani communities are calling for Netflix to take accountability following its decision to film Stranger Things Season 4 in a former Nazi prison, Primetimer reported Tuesday. The streaming service filmed portions of the wildly popular science fiction series at the Lukiškės prison in Vilnius, Lithuania; the prison was notorious for its Nazi involvement during World War II and its proximity to the horrific Ponary Massacre in which 100,000 Jews, Rroma, and political prisoners were murdered.

In addition to the filming that took place in the Lithuanian prison, AirBnB began offering a Stranger Things-themed hotel experience inside Lukiškės, which began hosting visitors June 4.
