""We're beyond excited that fans will have the chance to experience the final episode of Stranger Things in theaters," the Duffer Brothers said in a statement. "Getting to see it on the big screen with incredible sound, picture, and a room full of fans feels like the perfect - dare we say bitchin' - way to celebrate the end of this adventure.""
"Season 5 of Stranger Things will roll out in three parts: four episodes drop on Thanksgiving week (Nov. 26, to be precise), three on Christmas Eve (Dec. 24), and the finale on New Year's Eve. According to the season's official description, we'll return to Hawkins in the fall of 1987. Our heroes are united by a single goal: to find and kill Vecna."
