Details around Stranger Things Season 5 remain tightly under wraps, with showrunners teasing only the barest hints about the upcoming story. During Netflix’s “Stranger Things Day” on November 6, fans were given a glimpse into the premiere episode, titled “The Crawl,” which begins with an eerie scene: “DARKNESS. The sounds of COLD WIND. GROANING TREES. And… A CHILD’S VOICE. Singing a familiar song.” The mysterious title and haunting opening have sparked plenty of fan theories, though no explanations have been provided yet. Fortunately, Finn Wolfhard has assured fans that all lingering questions, especially those surrounding the Upside Down and its dark lore, will be answered before the series concludes.
The highly anticipated fifth and final season of Stranger Things will stream on Netflix, produced by the Duffer Brothers along with Shawn Levy and Dan Cohen. Familiar faces, including Winona Ryder, David Harbour, and Millie Bobby Brown, will return, joined by newcomer Linda Hamilton in a yet-to-be-revealed role.
