Stranger Things Season 5 Trailer Breakdown
The new teaser trailer is filled with drama, danger, and deep emotions.
It starts with Steve (Joe Keery) fixing a radio antenna—maybe to fight Vecna with sound waves. The scene feels intense as dark vines wrap around the tower later, hinting at a huge battle.
A big shock in the trailer is Eddie Munson’s grave. It’s shown with graffiti saying “Burn in Hell,” a direct reference to Stephen King’s Carrie. This shows the Duffer Brothers are still using classic horror to shape their story.
Another emotional moment shows Max Mayfield (Sadie Sink) lying unconscious while Lucas plays Running Up That Hill. She’s seen waking up for a second, giving fans some hope.
We also see the return of the terrifying Demodogs. They’re stronger than ever and may play a major role in the final fight.
