Netflix recently dropped a teaser trailer for Stranger Things Season 5, marking the beginning of the end for Netflix’s beloved series. Set in fall 1987, this final season brings the ultimate showdown between Vecna’s forces and Hawkins’ determined heroes. For those of you who don’t want any SPOILERS about this new season, stop reading and avoid this podcast episode.
The newly released trailer reveals familiar faces alongside newcomer Linda Hamilton as Dr. Kay, while showcasing Eddie Munson’s grave, Max’s hospital bed, and an army of demogorgons. Stranger Things Season 5 finds Hawkins scarred by rifts, under military quarantine, with Eleven forced into hiding as the government intensifies its hunt for her.
The climactic Stranger Things Season 5 will release in three volumes this holiday season: four episodes on November 26, three on Christmas Day, and the series finale on New Year’s Eve 2025, all dropping at 5 pm PT. The Duffer Brothers promise a return to horror roots as our heroes unite with one goal: find and kill the vanished Vecna. The trailer’s ominous tone raises fears for beloved characters’ fates, though fans hope the power of friendship—and Eleven’s abilities—will ultimately triumph against the darkness of the Upside Down in Stranger Things Season 5.

My biggest theory, one I have not seen anywhere else, is Papa/Brenner is 000. Yes, we all know Henry is 001, and Eleven is…well…011. I think it all started with Brenner being 000, the original powered kid, which led to him being in charge of this whole thing!
Hi Addi and Darrel.(correct order lol) J live in Wisconsin. I was wondering if that’s on your bad state list. I’m am 17 and I love stranger things. It made such an impact I have a Walkman now and over 160 cassettes. I also agree on Max has powers. I also think Eleven is the reason why the rock went in the mouth because missed all the other ones. Stay strange.
Ps Eddie did not deserve to die like that it had me crying
