To celebrate Stranger Things day, the writers of the Netflix show shared a tantalizing glimpse into the final season. Posting onTwitter, they shared the first few lines of the show’s opening to season 5.
This reads: “Darkness. The sound of cold trees. Groaning trees. And… a child’s voice. Singing a familiar song:” There’s no denying that it’s a mysterious tease, but luckily the Stranger Things community had their sleuthing hats on, and think they’ve worked it out.
It would make sense that Will opens the fifth and final season of Stranger Things aswe know he’s going to be key to how it all ends. The Duffer Brothers teased this earlier this year, with Ross Duffer tellingVariety: “Will really takes center stage again in [season] 5. This emotional arc for him is what we feel is going to hopefully tie the whole series together.”
Stranger Things season 5has beendelayed by the ongoing strikes. While the writers’ strike is now over, theSAG-AFTRAone is still ongoing, which means cameras are yet to start rolling. Thankfully, we do have some more from the world of Stranger Things on the way still asa new play is opening in London’s West End, and according to its writers, it will beintegral to the show going forward.
