Stranger Things Season 5 is finally in sight, and Netflix was kind enough to give us a little tease on what awaits us in Hawkings.
After months of silence, Netflix finally gave us something to hold on to regarding our favorite mystery series, Stranger Things. And not only that. It is an almost THREE-MINUTE-long teaser, making me wonder if the trailer is going to be 10 minutes.
Stranger Things Final Season Release Date Dropped
As announced in the new teaser, the final season of Stranger Things is going to release in two volumes and a separate finale. Volume 1, containing episodes 1-4, will come to Netflix on November 26, while Volume 2 with the final episodes 5-7 will be gifted to us as a Christmas present on December 25. And then... at last... the grand finale will go live on New Year's Eve (which automatically determined my plans for the winter holidays).
Stranger Things Season 5 Teaser: What Did We See?
The story picks up in the fall of 1987, right after the rifts opened in Hawkins. The town is now under full military control, with soldiers everywhere, and yeah… the Demogorgons are back. Vecna has vanished without a trace, but the gang is fully united with one goal: find him and end this nightmare for good.
But it won’t be easy. The government is hunting Eleven again, forcing her back into hiding. Meanwhile, Will's connection to the Upside Down is creeping in again as the anniversary of his disappearance approaches. It appears that Max might still be unconscious, but had to be rescued from the Hospital for some reason. My boy Jonathan also appeared to get a lot more screen time in a teaser than usually... Which is not a good sign, to be honest...
It’s all building toward one final, massive battle that is bigger and darker than anything they’ve ever faced. It appears that Max might still be unconscious, but had to be rescued from the Hospital for some reason.
My boy Jonathan also appeared to get a lot more screen time in a teaser than usually... Which is not a good sign, to be honest... Oh yeah! And Eleven is flying. The Duffer brothers say this is their biggest season yet, think eight blockbuster movies packed into one.
And if you've been dying to know more about the Upside Down, now's the time. Season 5 will finally reveal long-held secrets that have been in the works since the very beginning. It’s a full-circle moment... Where answers to the mysteries from Season 1 are finally coming to light.
