OVER five hours longer than any previous session, Stranger Things’ supersized Season Four will launch with Volume 1 (Episodes 1 to 7) on May 27, followed by Volume II’s epic conclusion (Episodes 8 and 9) on July 1.

To tide you over ‘til then, here are the first eight minutes of Stranger Things 4. 

It's been six months since the Battle of Starcourt, which brought terror and destruction to Hawkins. Struggling with the aftermath, our group of friends are separated for the first time – and navigating the complexities of high school hasn't made things any easier.

In this most vulnerable time, a new and horrifying supernatural threat surfaces, presenting a gruesome mystery that, if solved, might finally put an end to the horrors of the Upside Down.
