What is the Plot for Season 5 of Stranger Things?

When we last left Hawkins, the war between Hawkins and the Upside Down World was fully on! Moreover, the final scene of the show depicted fields of flowers that were dying and horrific clouds covering the neighborhoods.

According to Jamie Campbell Bower, “I think what you will see is more of the human aspect of Vecna… Let me say that much. And there’s a huge, great, cool thing—I need to keep my mouth closed!—but there’s a huge, great, cool thing you see as well!” Does this mean that Vecna will turn good? Or will the audience be expected to sympathize with him?

The producers also have a special message for us, “We do have an outline for Season 5 and we pitched it to Netflix and they responded well to it,” he said. “I mean, it was hard. It’s the end of the story. I saw executives crying who I’ve never seen cry before and it was wild.” Furthermore, this means the ending will be sad. Only one way to find out!

Furthermore, there will be a time jump in the show. Moreover, in the show, Eleven is shown to be 14, however, she is almost 19 in real life. Likewise, the show may jump 4 years ahead. In addition, this means, that rather than focusing on the 1980s, we will now be in the 1990s! This is very exciting news!

When will Stranger Things Season 5 be Released?

We are hoping for the end of this year! Moreover, the producers have stated, “The gap should be quite a bit shorter this time, because we already have an initial outline, and we can’t imagine there will be another six-month forced hiatus”.
