STRANGER THINGS 5. Stranger Things is a science fiction television series released online on the Netflix streaming platform. Season 5 is becoming clearer and should arrive soon.
Netflix subscribers have been waiting for more than two years to find out what awaits the residents of Hawkins. Season 4 of Stranger Things ended on a cliffhanger (the world turned upside down arrives in the town of Indiana), and, since then, the sequel has been awaited. Season 5, which will be the last, is soon finishing its filming, disrupted by the writers’ and actors’ strike which delayed the progress of production.
This Wednesday, November 6, however, Netflix gave good news to its subscribers, confirming that the fifth season of Stranger Things would indeed arrive in 2025. The precise date is not known, but a video which compiles what appear to be episode titles: “rescue mission”, “the disappearance of ***”, “the trap” , “witchcraft”, “shock plan”, “escape from Camazotz”, “the bridge” and “the world right side up”.
Enough to fuel theories about the plot of the end of Stranger Things : we understand with this video that the plot of the season will take place “in the fall of 1987”, that a character (or a place?) will disappear in the second episode, and that a new place, Camazotz, will be at the heart of the sixth episode.
