The trailer arrives ahead of the show’s India release on December 26, when Volume 2 will begin streaming on Netflix.

Stranger Things Season 5 Volume 2 trailer highlights

The trailer places Eleven back at the centre of events. The group is shown regrouping, with several scenes pointing toward a final confrontation rather than a prolonged conflict. One sequence confirms Eleven’s reunion with Kali, a character absent from the narrative since earlier seasons and largely left unresolved until now. Their presence together suggests the fight will extend beyond the original Hawkins circle and rely on past connections.

Will Byers appears briefly in the trailer. The shots indicate that his connection to the Upside Down remains unresolved. The appearances are limited, but they signal that earlier storylines are being revisited as the series moves toward its conclusion.

Vecna features prominently throughout the new footage. The trailer frames him not only as an ongoing threat, but as a character increasingly defined by his past. Several scenes point toward a deeper look at his past as Henry Creel. The direction matches earlier remarks from creators Matt and Ross Duffer about revisiting Vecna’s memories and motivations.

One moment involving Holly Wheeler widens the scope of the threat, suggesting the danger now extends beyond the core group.
