As for the final ever episode's title, "The Rightside Up", could viewers be about to say goodbye to the Upside Down forever?
After confirming the episode titles, the teaser then reveals that Season 5 will take place in the fall of 1987 where "one last adventure begins".
This means the events of the next instalment follows not long after Season 4, which was set in March 1986 onwards.
Season 4's cliffhanger ending saw a pivotal life hanging in the balance - Max (played by Sadie Sink).
Max fell victim to the evil Vecna (Jamie Campbell-Bower) and seemed to be a goner after the final bell tock struck and his spell took her life. Or did it?
The season ends with Max in a hospital surrounded by the Hawkins gang. Though unconscious the monitors suggest some activity - though any brain activity is questionable, after Eleven entered her mind and found little going on there.
Viewers will have to wait until season 5 to learn the fate of Max and the rest of the Hawkins High kids in the final outing.
Stranger Things seasons 1-4 are streaming on Netflix. Stranger Things season 5 is coming to Netflix in 2025. Stranger Things: The First Shadow is now booking until February 2025 at the Phoenix Theatre in London. Tickets are available now.
