Warning: the following contains spoilers for part one of Stranger Things season five
With just over a week to go until Netflix releases the next batch of Stranger Things episodes, the company has dropped a trailer for the second part of season five. The clip begins in the aftermath of the action-packed ending to the first bunch of episodes, with bodies and blazes surrounding Will as he says in a voiceover, “We failed. We never stood a chance.” However, his mother Joyce tells him that, “This is not over. Not by a long shot.”
We learn in this trailer that some of the gang who were still in the Upside Down at the end of part one make it back to their own reality. However, it appears that we’re about to learn a whole bunch of new information about the deadly alternate dimension. Dustin says, “This whole time, everything we have ever assumed about the Upside Down has been dead wrong.”
In addition, the clip shows some of the heroes going on the offensive against a militarized area; Max and Holly making their way through the “mental prison” they’re trapped in; Demodogs attacking the Hawkins hospital; and Eleven asking Eight to help her find and kill Vecna. There’s also a death pact between Dustin and Steve, a look at an ominous new pulsating mass from the Upside Down and Vecna stating, “It is time for a new world.”
There’s a lot going on in this trailer and we won’t have to wait too much longer for the next three episodes. They will hit Netflix at 8PM ET on December 24. The finale will debut on December 31, also at 8PM. The last episode will also be shown in movie theaters.
