The "Stranger Things" series finale will be released on Netflix at 8 p.m. ET on Dec. 31. The series finale will also be shown in movie theaters the same day. Episodes 1 to 4 dropped Nov. 26 at 8 p.m. ET.

The gate to the Upside Down has closed after 10 years and 5 seasons—but these films and series will fill the supernatural, nostalgic void left behind.

"Stranger Things" may be over, but a new spinoff is coming. Here’s what to know about the upcoming series in the same universe, including an important hint from the Season 5 finale.

In a recent interview with Josh Horowitz, Stranger Things creators Matt and Ross Duffer chimed in with their own thoughts on the finale's ambiguous conclusion, confirming that only person actually knows what happened to Eleven after the series' ending.

Even though Steve wasn’t one of the most likely characters to meet the Grim Reaper in the Upside Down, the final trailer showed Dustin freaking out at something, so there was a death risk for Steve. So, when he fell off the tower in the Upside Down, it seemed entirely possible the first time around that he was going to die.

There's simply no debate: Stranger Things season 1 is the best season of the series. Despite it being the smallest season in terms of scope, budget, and more, the first season is the tightest story. It doesn't go nearly as big as the last three seasons, but there's so much to love about the first season.
