How to watch Stranger Things Season 5 Volume 1 from anywhere
It's the final season of the epic retro saga - will the kids of Hawkins save the world from Vecna? Stream the final episodes to find out
From where it all started in 2016, until now, stepping into its final season, Stranger Things has taken us on a ride we'll never forget.
Not only did Eleven and her trusty band of misfits take us straight back to our childhoods in the biggest dose of nostalgia ever to drop on Netflix, but the entire series has reminded us that great TV can still be made.
Although we aren't ready for it to end, we can't wait to have all of our burning Stranger Things questions answered.
Firstly, is Max ok? We're still getting over the devastating scenes from season 4, watching Lucas sob in desperation as she was telepathically crushed by Vecna - listening to Kate Bush's Running Up That Hill will never be the same again.
Secondly, Vecna has vanished and his whereabouts are unknown - with Hawkins under military quarantine and Eleven forced back into hiding, will the kids ever triumph in the final battle of good versus evil?
If you also can't wait to find, out, there's no need to wait a single moment to tune into Stranger Things season 5, volume 1, as we share how to watch it from anywhere.
