Dubai: The teaser for the final season of Netflix’s Stranger Things is finally out!

The teaser was shared on the show’s Instagram account with the caption, “Every battle has led to this. The Stranger Things 5 teaser is HERE!”

The action-packed teaser showed us the gang hiding with their loved ones as they prepare to “burn” something. Every emotion, be it fear or tears, is doubled in this series finale.

“Wherever this blood leads, I need you to fight one last time. Let’s end this kid,” David Harbour’s Jim Hopper tells Eleven, played by Millie Bobby Brown.

The cast includes Finn Wolfhard (Mike Wheeler), Noah Schnapp (Will Byers), Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas Sinclair), Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin Henderson), Joe Keery (Steve Harrington), Natalia Dyer (Nancy Wheeler), Winona Ryder (Joyce Byers), Charlie Heaton (Jonathan Byers), Sadie Sink (Max Mayfield), Maya Hawke (Robin Buckley) and more.

Jamie Campbell Bower returns as the antagonist, Vecna one last time, and appears in the last few seconds of the teaser and says, “Found you.”

The synopsis of Stranger Things 5 says, “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.”

“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.”

Stranger Things 5 is set to premiere in November on Netflix. Vol 1 of the show will release on November 26, followed by Vol 2 on Christmas (December 25) and finale on New Year’s Eve (December 31).
