Netflix's mega-popular horror series, Stranger Things, is gearing up for its final season, and the show's writers have dropped a teaser about how it all begins.
The creative minds behind the show, known as the Stranger Writers X, have a habit of sharing glimpses into their creative process and behind-the-scenes secrets. On the evening of November 6, they treated fans to a cryptic message that sheds light on the opening scene of the final season.
As the show approaches its grand conclusion, viewers are filled with anticipation about the fates of beloved characters like Mike, Eleven, Dustin, Lucas, and Will, whom we've watched grow up over the years. It's not just the end of a season; it feels like the end of an era.
The Season 5 teaser promises to kick things off on a spine-chilling note, reminiscent of the series' beginnings in Season 1. In a tweet, they revealed, "Season 5. Chapter 1. Scene 1," accompanied by an image of the script.
The description in the tweet sets the mood: "The sound of COLD WIND. GROANING TREES. And... A CHILD’S VOICE. Singing a familiar song."

This teaser sent excitement through social media, with fans both applauding and questioning the writers for their tease. Comments ranged from eager anticipation to speculations about the upcoming season's direction.
One enthusiastic fan wrote, "OH COME ON HOW YOU GONNA LEAVE US WITH THIS. (p.s I can’t wait for season 5, and thank you for making the best show ever ❤️)."
Another excited viewer added, "SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO NOWWW. ARE WE GETTING A THROWBACK TO S1 WILL SINGING IN THE UPSIDE DOWN?"
Another comment expressed sheer excitement: "I cannot stress enough how excited I am for this series finale. Wow."
Meanwhile, some fans delved into their own theories about Season 5's storyline. One theory suggests a time-travel element: "What if… the first episode of season five goes back in time to when Will went missing, hence this post? And the reason it’s called the crawl is because it’s them having to go back in time to fix everything. The crawl - the voyage or an adventure/journey to save Hawkins."
Another fan predicted a flashback to the Upside Down, speculating, "It’s gonna be a flashback to the time Will was in the Upside Down, and he’s singing 'Should I Stay or Should I Go' in the Upside Down. How many points to bet that it’s gonna be in Castle Byers?"
While the exact release date for the final season remains unknown, fans seem more than willing to wait for a quality ending to this iconic show. It's clear that the Stranger Things community is brimming with anticipation and enthusiasm as they prepare to bid farewell to this beloved series.
