In July 2022, fans were given the second half of Stranger Things 4 to enjoy. Ever since then fans have been desperate to see how their beloved characters have coped with the events of the tragic season.

After an extremely long 1,245 day wait, Season 5 Volume 1 was released to Netflix on the 27nd of November and it is safe to say that fans have absolutely loved being reunited with their favourite Hawkins gang. 

The first volume of the electrifying sci-fi was ranked in the top 10 in 93 countries and placed number 1 in 90 of them.

Despite a run time of about 4 hours and 53 minutes in the first volume, fans have made short work of it with the show already having 59.6 million views in the first week of posting.

Netflix has stated that Stranger Things is now the “most-watched, English-language premiere in its history”.

The Duffer Brothers have been saying a lot to hype up the fans regarding “bringing the story full circle” and revealing more “end game territory”. The quotes have fans feeling a range of emotion.

The show will be released in three parts with obviously Volume 1, which contains four, hard-hitting, episodes which are out already. Volume 2 which contains three episodes are out on Boxing Day in the UK. Finally the massive and hugely awaited finale which is 1 hour and 55 minutes long, coming out on New Year’s Day.
