Netflix has released the trailer for the fifth and final season of “Stranger Things.” Created by the Duffer Brothers, “Stranger Things 5” picks up in the aftermath of Vecna leaving Max in a coma and spreading the Upside Down into Hawkins. At the end of the explosive trailer, Vecna arrives to go to war against the gang.

The official synopsis for “Stranger Things 5” reads, “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.”

In May, Netflix revealed that the final season of the mega-hit show will be released in three parts: the first debuting on Nov. 26, the second Dec. 25 and the series finale Dec. 31. Each volume releases at 5pm PT.
