The Plot and Returning Cast
The town of Hawkins is once again under threat as big glowing cracks in the ground and lightning storms plague the town. The heroes, who are currently labeled as satanic murderers by the town and linked to many of the deaths in season 4, will need to save Hawkins and defeat Vecna for good.
Many of the original cast members will return for the final season, including Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Noah Schnapp, Sadie Sink, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Winona Ryder, David Harbour, Maya Hawke, and Priah Feguson.
New additions to the cast include Linda Hamilton, who plays a mysterious doctor named Dr. Kay. Her exact role remains a secret, but she is part of the main cast in the final season, which focuses on the battle against Vecna in Hawkins in 1987.
Connections to Previous Seasons
The fifth season will have a particular tie to the relatively-restrained second season. Ross Duffer, one of the creators of Stranger Things, mentioned that they are pulling from many undeveloped season 2 ideas for season 5.
The Stranger Things Universe
In the Stranger Things universe, Turnbow is a property development company, and Sorcerer is a reference to Dungeons and Dragons. The Rightside Up is an inverse of the Upside Down, and Camazotz is a name from Mayan mythology and could refer to Demobats in the Stranger Things universe.
