Final “Stranger Things S2” trailer is dark and fantastic

While most returning TV shows have already aired their fall premiere, there are a handful of popular series that are keeping fans waiting. Chief among them is Netflix's “Stranger Things”, which was the breakout hit of last summer. “Stranger Things 2” (as The Duffer Brothers call it) has been pushed back to facilitate a Halloween release, keeping the fandom invested with short trailers and clips from new episodes. The final trailer has just arrived, and it looks like Season 2 is going to be truly wild, reports Cinemablend.

The new trailer opens with the question everyone was has been asking: where is Eleven? While she seemingly perished destroying the Demogorgon in Season 1, Hopper's final scene from the finale showed him hiding Eggos in a box in the woods. Eleven seems to be regularly checking that box for her favorite snack, while rocking a sweet new haircut.

The importance of Halloween for Season 2 has also been made clear. Because while Will has been seeing flashes into The Upside Down, it looks like October 31 will be the first time Will Byers sees the season's new creature: the shadow monster. The giant monster has been teased since last year's Super Bowl commercial, and this trailer provides us with the clearest look yet. It looks like it's made of pure shadow, which is quite different from the very physical threat of The Demogorgon in Season 1.

“Stranger Things 2” will be released in its entirety October 27 on Netflix.
