As far as the structure of Stranger Things: Tales of '85 goes, Robles promised lots of monsters but not a straightforward "monster of the week" scenario. The series will have a season-long mystery to uncover, as well as some real horror elements.

As big fans of the series, we're more than a little excited about the Stranger Things cartoon coming next year. It was already looking like a strong year for animation in 2026, and a new take on the magic of Hawkins could be the icing on the cake.

The Google animation for Stranger Things Season 5 features an interactive Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) 20-sided dice on its search page, which, when clicked, rolls and cracks into a red screen, ultimately flipping your search screen into the “Upside Down” for a final D&D-style adventure. A D&D dice will appear at the bottom of the homepage.

Stranger Things has been hinting at this reveal throughout Season 5. Look no further than its references to A Wrinkle in Time, which features wormhole-like tesseracts. Or how about Mr. Clarke fully teaching a class on Einstein-Rosen Bridges, aka wormholes?

The video for the late former Beatle's 1973 song Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth) was directed by Finn Wolfhard, who's best known for playing Mike Wheeler in the Netflix series Stranger Things. Its handcrafted puppets and multiple Easter eggs are delighting fans.

Stranger Things revealed the real origin of the Upside Down, and it flips a key element of the series on its head.

The play reveals that the cave system was where Henry first ventured to Dimension X — now dubbed "The Abyss" in Stranger Things. That's the alternate dimension where the Mind Flayer and Demogorgons are from, as opposed to the Upside Down, which Volume 2 reveals is a bridge connecting the Abyss to our world.

Stranger Things is suffering from review bombing after its latest Season 5 episode met with lower audience scores than the Netflix series has typically seen. But some fans are striking back with 5-star reviews in a bid to reverse the trend.

Steven Spielberg, James Cameron, "Frankenstein," Marvel Comics and more are reference points for "Stranger Things 5"

Stranger Things' finale expands theatrical release with more locations added to 620+. There have been more than 1.1M RSVPs to date, Duffer bros say.

They must have cut out a lot of scenes from volume 2 and from our loved characters. I believe we as fans should stand up and take the initiative to get the footage and make the decision. We should sign this petition,
