‘Stranger Things’ Season 4 Trailer Brings Another Supernatural Threat to Hawkins

Netflix has revealed the first full-length trailer for the upcoming ‘Stranger Things’ Season 4, which will release in two volumes. ‘Stranger Things’ Season 4 Vol. 1 will release on May 27 and Vol. 2 on July 1.

The trailer begins with a blazing hellscape and a voice warning, "You've broken everything... "Your suffering is almost at an end." Max (Sadie Sink) then pays a visit to the grave of her late brother Billy (Dacre Montgomery), telling him about how things have changed since his death last season.

Throughout the trailer, we see all of the characters we know and love as they adjust to their new lives: Hopper (David Harbour) is in frigid Russia, Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) is in California with the Byers family, and the rest of the crew is back home in Hawkins, where something dark and terrible is developing. "A war is coming," a voice warns, adding that everyone in Hawkins is in "the eye of the storm." The trailer's last 30 seconds are packed with action-packed scenes of explosions, horrifying monsters, and even some casual lifting up.

Before this Netflix has already released four teasers for the series. Stranger Things Season 4 picks up six months after the Battle of Starcourt, which terrorized and wrecked Hawkins. Our group of friends is struggling and separated from the aftermath for the first time - and navigating the difficulties of high school hasn't made things any easier. A new and horrific supernatural threat emerges at this most vulnerable period, providing a gruesome puzzle that, if answered, could ultimately put a stop to the horrors of the Upside Down.

Previously, the first teaser released on Feb. 14, 2020, revealed that Hopper survived the climax of Season 3, and is now alive and imprisoned in Russia. The other teasers have shown Eleven (Millie Bobbie Brown) locked up in a mental institution,

Netflix has already decided the fate of Stranger Things by renewing it for Season 5, which will be also its final season. Duffer Brothers announced revealing a special letter, which also hinted at several spin-offs.

The three-time Emmy nominee for Best Drama is one of Netflix’s most-watched titles, with Season 3 amassing 582 million view hours ranking as the second most popular English-language series in the Netflix Top 10, and Season 2 accounting for 427 million view hours ranking at #10.
