Netflix has unveiled the trailer for the upcoming series finale premiere of Stranger Things Season 5, which will be dropping this New Year’s Eve at 5 pm PT. Meanwhile, Season 5 Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 are now available for streaming.
“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. Complicating their mission, the government has placed the town under military quarantine and intensified its hunt for Eleven, forcing her back into hiding,” reads the Season 5 synopsis. “As the anniversary of Will’s disappearance approaches, so does a heavy, familiar dread. 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.”
