    The first part of season four dropped on the streamer on May 27.

    In February, “Stranger Things” creators Matt and Ross Duffer announced that season five would be the final chapter in the 1980s-set show based in the fictional town of Hawkins in Indiana, US.

    Chronicling the story of a secret government lab which accidentally opens a door to a parallel dimension referred to as the ‘upside down’, the show stars Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard and Gaten Matarazzo, Winona Ryder, David Harbour, Caleb McLaughlin, Noah Schnapp, Sadie Sink, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Joe Keery and Maya Hawke.

    It is produced by Monkey Massacre Productions & 21 Laps Entertainment with the Duffer Brothers serving as executive producers, alongside Shawn Levy and Dan Cohen as well as Iain Paterson and Curtis Gwinn.

    The universe of “Stranger Things” is set to expand with a live-action spin-off series based on an original idea by the brothers.

  • WATCH | Netflix unveils spoofy teaser of ‘Stranger Things’ season 4

    By ANI

    WASHINGTON: Netflix on Saturday, September 26, 2021, unveiled a string of cryptic looks at season 4 of ‘Stranger Things’ that centres on a house belonging to Robert Englund’s character.

    As per The Hollywood Reporter, Netflix offered up the most extensive look at ‘Stranger Things 4’ at a fan event on Saturday.

    The teaser offers insights into the Creel house — which co-creator Matt Duffer called “a super important location” for the upcoming season.

    The 90-second spoofy teaser opens with a flashback to the 1950s, where a family of four moves into a beautiful home, then follows a set of increasingly disturbing events before moving forward to the show’s 1980s setting as Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo), Steve (Joe Keery) and the rest of the crew break into the house in search of something mystic.

    The upcoming season will also introduce a new character named Victor Creel, played by horror legend Robert Englund, who is also one of several new cast members in ‘Stranger Things’ season 4, slated to premiere sometime in 2022.

    As per The Hollywood Reporter, Creel is described as a disturbed, intimidating man who was imprisoned in a psychiatric hospital after a gruesome murder in the 1950s.

    Executive producer Shawn Levy told The Hollywood Reporter in August that season four of the series is “by far the most ambitious, cinematic, sprawling and epic season that we’ve ever done … by a lot.”

    Jamie Campbell Bower, Eduardo Franco and Joseph Quinn will have regular roles and Amybeth McNulty, Myles Truitt, Regina Ting Chen, Grace Van Dien, Tom Wlaschiha, Nikola Djuricko, Mason Dye and Sherman Augustus will be reprising their roles in the upcoming season of the series.
