The first season of Stranger Things was a smash hit for Netflix. It had millions of views and they gained a ton of subscribers. Well, the kids from Hawkins are back for a fifth and final series.
The Duffer Brothers, the creators of Stranger Things, have said that they had planned a story arc over five seasons, so this should be the last one. Although there is talk about a spin-off or seven.
This final season had been delayed because of actors’ and writers’ strikes, but has now been giving a release date. The season is split into three volumes, with the following release dates: Volume 1 – 26th November, Volume 2 – 25th December, and Volume 3 on 31st December.
The original story for Stranger Things, as if you haven’t heard of it, is:
In 1980s Indiana, a group of young friends witness supernatural forces and secret government exploits. As they search for answers, the children unravel a series of extraordinary mysteries.
Some of it has been excellent, with great performances from the kids, a good story, and overall a decent show. Some of the seasons have been a little hit and miss, but people cannot wait to find out what happens in this conclusion to the series.
The Duffer Brothers have said that this fifth season will finish the stories of the gang: Eleven, Mike, Will, Lucas, and Dustin. I’m guessing the rest of them as well, Hopper, Joyce, Nancy, Jonathan etc etc.
