And we’ve been making it together for almost 10 years now,” explained Matt Duffer. “There was a lot of crying. There was so much crying. The show means so much to all of us, and everyone put their hearts and souls into it. And we hope — and believe — that passion is going to translate to the screen.”

‘Stranger Things’ Season 5- What We Know

While the new trailer is full of hints and glimpses of the intense season to come, some fans are saying that so much time has passed that they’ll need to rewatch the first four seasons to get ready for season five’s debut November 26 at 8:00p.m. ET on Netflix.

‘Stranger Things’ season 4 ended with the monstrous creature Vecna opening rifts between the Upside Down and Hawkins, Indiana.

The fates of two main characters- Eddie Munson and Max- seem to hang in the balance.

Season 5 starts off more than a year later.

The Netflix synopsis reads, â€œâ€œThe 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.”
