Netflix has released the first five minutes of the upcoming final season of Stranger Things, teasing an intense showdown between Hawkins and Vecna.
The clip shows a young Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) trapped once again in the Upside Down, stalked by its terrifying creatures. He is eventually captured by Vecna, who says:
“At long last, we can begin. You and I, we are going to do such beautiful things together, William. Such beautiful things.”
This unsettling moment reveals what happened to Will during his captivity in Season 1 and hints that his connection to Vecna still affects him.
The released preview intensifies anticipation by revealing Will’s ongoing struggle and sets the stage for the final season’s dramatic conclusion, split across multiple special releases.
