Stranger Things Season 5 Trailer: A First Look at the Final Chapter
The wait is over! Netflix has finally dropped the official trailer for Stranger Things Season 5, and it’s everything we hoped for—and more. The teaser, which debuted during Netflix’s Tudum 2025 event, gives us a glimpse into the epic conclusion of the Hawkins saga. With flashbacks to past seasons and new footage hinting at the final battle, this season promises to be the most intense yet2.
What’s in the Trailer?
The trailer opens with Joyce Byers (Winona Ryder) and Will (Noah Schnapp) reflecting on the night everything began. We see iconic moments from previous seasons—the Christmas lights, Eleven’s first appearance, and the gang’s terrifying journeys into the Upside Down. But then, the tone shifts. Hawkins is on fire, the Upside Down is spreading, and Will screams “RUN!” in a chilling final shot3.
Vecna is still out there, and the gang is gearing up for their biggest fight yet. With the government placing Hawkins under military quarantine, Eleven is forced back into hiding, making the stakes higher than ever4.
New Toys Incoming!
As longtime Stranger Things fans (and toy collectors), we’re thrilled to announce that Jazwares and Netflix are launching an all-new toy line inspired by Season 5 and its upcoming animated spinoff. Expect action figures, playsets, vehicles, costumes, and even pet accessories!
Some highlights include:
Highly detailed action figures of Eleven, Vecna, and the Demogorgon.
Playsets featuring iconic locations like the Creel House and the Upside Down.
Toy vehicles, including Hopper’s police truck and the Hawkins Lab van.
Pet accessories, from Stranger Things-themed dog collars to chew toys inspired by the show’s creatures, there’s something for every furry fan. Yes, even Maverick would want one!
Our Thoughts as a Toy Store
As a store that has covered Stranger Things in the past, we couldn’t be more excited for this new series and new wave of merchandise. The attention to detail in these figures and playsets is incredible, and we know collectors will be eager to get their hands on them. Whether you’re a fan of retro horror, sci-fi nostalgia, or just love great toys, this lineup is shaping up to be one of the best yet.
With Stranger Things 5 premiering in three parts—starting November 26, followed by Christmas Day and the grand finale on New Year’s Eve—there’s plenty of time to build your collection before the final showdown.
