Netflix drop teaser for final season of Stranger Things
Netflix have released the teaser for the final season of Stranger Things, which will drop later this year. The supernatural drama, which debuted nearly a decade ago, will release its fifth season later this year; with it set to be split into three parts beginning in November. Now, Netflix have (finally) given a teaser to what will happen to Eleven and Co as they go to the Upside Down one last time, and try to defeat Vecna once and for all. SPOILER WARNING FOR THE PREVIOUS FOUR SEASONS OF STRANGER THINGS BELOW! In the trailer, the primary protagonists are in various locations, with the common denominator being the town's fictional radio station WSQK; with the increase in decibels potentially being a nod to how to bring people out of the upside down. The teaser also gives a brutal reminder of Eddie Munson's death in the season four finale, with his friends visiting his now defaced grave, with 'burn in hell' being written in 'red viscous fluid.' Netflix have released the teaser for the final season of Stranger Things, which will drop later this year. Pic: Netflix Things aren't looking good for Max either, as she remains in a coma from season four after an encounter with Vecna, with Lucas remaining at her hospital bed. 'The fall of 1987. Hawkins is scarred by the opening of the Rifts, and our heroes are united by a single goal: find and kill Vecna. But he has vanished — his whereabouts and plans unknown,' the teaser's description reads. 'Complicating their mission, the government has placed the town under military quarantine and intensified its hunt for Eleven, forcing her back into hiding. As the anniversary of Will's disappearance approaches, so does a heavy, familiar dread.' Max is still in a coma, while Eddie Munson is dead as the rest of the Hawkins 'kids' try to defeat Vecna once and for all. Pic: Netflix 'The final battle is looming — and with it, a darkness more powerful and more deadly than anything they've faced before. To end this nightmare, they'll need everyone — the full party — standing together, one last time.' The first part of Stranger Things Season Five will be released on Netflix on November 26, before part two drops on December 25. Then, the two-hour series finale will drop on December 31.

PSA: Stranger Things fans are not happy about this season 5 detail
Stranger Things fans, we have some good news and some bad. Last night, Netflix hosted its annual Tudum event, which celebrates all things on the streaming platform, plus shares exclusives from its biggest shows. As we all know, Stranger Things is one of them, so it was the perfect place for a few exciting announcements. From a brief sneak peek of what's to come in season five, a highlight reel of some of the most memorable moments from past episodes, and a cameo from Millie Bobby Brown, aka Eleven, Netflix also revealed when fans can expect to catch the new series. And this is where the mixed news comes in. While the platform did announce that the new episodes are just around the corner, they also shared that they'll be dropping in three parts. Yep, you heard that right: THREE. The first will enter the void on November 26, the second will follow on Christmas Day, and the last will be released on New Year's Eve. Basically, that's bad news for anyone who loves to binge-watch a series and hates waiting for episodes to drop in instalments. Following the news, fans of the show have taken to social media to share their frustration, with many sharing funny memes to express their disappointment. "Stranger Things season 5 is three parts??? absolutely not," one person said, as another penned: "You're telling me the 4th season of Stranger Things came out in 2022, the final season is coming out in Fall of this year, and Netflix has the nerve to split it up in THREE PARTS?!?!?!?" Elsewhere, someone else echoed: "THE LAST SEASON OF STRANGER THINGS IS BEING SPLIT INTO THREE PARTS ARE YOU KIDDING ME," while a fourth screamed: "Stranger Things s5 broken up into three parts this just isn't serious." Stranger Things is currently streaming on Netflix.
