Netflix<\/a> unveiled the official trailer for Stranger Things<\/a> 5 today, promising fans an epic conclusion to the beloved saga this holiday season. The two minute and forty second long trailer teases incredible action sequences, emotionally fraught moments, and the tragic chance that some of our favorite Stranger Things characters might not survive the final fight against Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Series co-creators, executive producers, writers, and directors Ross<\/a> and Matt Duffer<\/a> also shared with Netflix\u2019s official site, TUDUM, that this season will start off different than any iteration of Stranger Things that has come before.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think what\u2019s unique about this season is that it starts a little bit in chaos because our heroes ultimately lost at the end of Season 4,\u201d Ross Duffer said. \u201cWe usually set up their normal life and how they\u2019re going about school, and then we introduce the supernatural element. But in this case, this season is sprinting from the start.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re not experiencing normal life. Nothing in Hawkins is normal anymore,\u201d Matt Duffer added to TUDUM. \u201cTheir movement is restricted, and there are Big Brother cameras everywhere. So not only are they active \u2014 their everyday, normal lives are anything but.\u201d<\/p>\n

The trailer sets this up from the start, with Mike (Finn Wolfhard<\/a>) first confiding in Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown<\/a>) about their dire situation and then telling the whole group the plan: \u201cWe find Vecna. We end this once and for all. Together.\u201d<\/p>\n

Later, Eleven warns Mike that this war they\u2019re fighting isn\u2019t like one of his Dungeons & Dragons campaigns. \u201cYou don\u2019t get to write the ending,\u201d she says, tendering touching his cheek.<\/p>\n

We then get a super montage of insane battle scenes, crazy explosions, and emotional embraces all set to the sound of Queen<\/a>\u2018s \u201cWho Wants to Live Forever?\u201d<\/p>\n

The final moments of the trailer are especially juicy for fans (like yours truly) who have speculated for years about the creepy connection<\/a> between supervillain Vecna and Will Byers (Noah Schnapp<\/a>). Vecna \u201csummons\u201d William to him, insisting that our sweet Will the Wise will \u201chelp\u201d Vecna achieve his ultimate evil goals. <\/p>\n
