Stranger Things reveals episode titles for final season, confirms time jump

As a movie buff who has spent countless hours immersed in the world of 80’s classics and binge-watching every sci-fi/fantasy series under the sun, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgic anticipation as I delve into the episode titles for the final season of Stranger Things.

Following our usual custom, Netflix has released a sneak peek at the upcoming season of Stranger Things. This preview unveils the names of the upcoming episodes. Take a look above!

As for those episode titles, they are:

  1. “The Crawl”
  2. “The Vanishing Of…”
  3. “The Turnbow Trap”
  4. “Sorcerer”
  5. “Shock Jock”
  6. “Escape From Camazotz”
  7. “The Bridge”
  8. “The Rightside Up”

In the upcoming fifth season of “Stranger Things”, we learn that it will be the series’ last. This revelation leads us to ponder what the finale in Hawkins, Indiana might entail. Already, detectives on Reddit have been busy concocting theories.

“The Traverse

The phrase you provided, “‘The Vanishing Of…’“, is a suggestive title that echoes the first episode of the popular series, “Stranger Things”, titled “The Vanishing of Will Byers”. In that episode, young character Will Byers mysteriously disappears and ends up in the alternate dimension known as the Upside Down. However, this time, we don’t yet know who or what might vanish.

“The Turnbow Conundrum”: Observant viewers have noticed the sign of “Turnbow Land Development & Realty Co.” on a billboard in the alternate dimension known as the Upside Down. It’s likely that the mystery of the Turnbow Trap is somehow connected to this company.

“Sorcerer”: This may be another Dungeons & Dragons reference. Both Will and Eleven have been associated with spell-casters throughout the series. It could also be a reference to Vecna, the wicked creature from the Upside Down who is serving as the main baddie heading into the final season.

Shock Jock” refers to radio personalities who were popular in the 1980s for their energetic and provocative style that often woke listeners up during their morning commute. In season 5, we delve into a fresh setting: the WSQK Radio Station, which appears to be the location of this episode.

“Breaking Away from the Bat-Spirit Realm of Camazotz

Regarding the “escape” motif, the story “Escape from Camazotz” evokes the title of the 1981 action film “Escape from New York,” where New York City was isolated and transformed into a prison. Is it possible that Hawkins has been quarantined due to the Upside Down seeping into it? The characters, being as they are fond of giving things catchy names, might start referring to this isolated Hawkins as “Camazotz.” They do have a knack for naming things.

Title Clarification Needed: “The Bridge” – Could this refer to a physical structure in Hawkins, a symbolic connection between dimensions or emotions, or perhaps a combination of all three? More context would be helpful in understanding the intended meaning.

In the entire series, characters have faced distress from entities hailing from a parallel dimension named Upside Down. Perhaps, in the upcoming feature-length series conclusion, they will manage to restore order and peace…on the upright side.

Stranger Things 5 will take place a year after the end of Stranger Things 4

This preview is accompanied by a label: “A new journey commences in the Autumn of 1987.” According to The A.V. Club, the fourth season unfolded in March of 1986, meaning that more than a year will have elapsed when the fifth season resumes.

If our assumption is correct and Hawkins has been quarantined by the government, it implies that the characters we’ll encounter later have been living secluded from the outside world for a considerable amount of time. This isolation comes after they dispersed across various locations in season 4. The situation brings up intriguing questions regarding characters such as Max, who was in a coma at the end of season 4. Will she still be in that coma when we resume following the group, or will she have already recovered by then?

Apart from theoretical aspects, there are also realistic factors to take into account. Several of the youthful actors joined this production when they were entering puberty, and now they’re around their mid-twenties. Introducing a time leap might provide a reasonable explanation for why they appear so significantly more mature now.

The fifth and final season of Stranger Things is due out on Netflix sometime next year.
