The end is nigh in the Stranger Things universe... or so we thought!
Though the first four episodes of the fifth and final season have dropped, Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos has assured millions of fans around the world that there are more tales from the Upside Down yet to be told.
Per The Sun, several spin-off shows are already in the works, and there's hope that some of our favourite characters will be right in the middle of the action.
Volume two drops on Stephen's Day, and the grand finale will be released on New Year's Day.
For one last time, the party is getting together to save the town of Hawkins from the villainous Vecna.

While we're expecting to see all of our favourite characters band together to battle it out against Vecna, we'd imagine one character in particular will play a big role - Will Byer, in a full-circle moment from season one.
Elsewhere, minor characters are going to have bigger roles in the new season, with season five paying particular attention to the Wheeler clan.
