And now, let us begin...
Earlier today, the first posters for Stranger Things 4 dropped, revealing some of the major
locations from the upcoming fourth season, which is set to come out on May 27th and July
1st, 2022.
Each of the images were unveiled accompanied by a portentous caption on social media, and
they show a character from the series gazing away from the camera at one of the locales,
which are of course drenched in sickly red light.
The first poster says “Russia.
Getting the band back together.
Bring a jacket."
It shows Joyce Byers, Jim Hopper, and Murray Bauman walking towards a portal in Russia.
You can also see what appears to be a dead Demogorgon, although the size and stance of
it make it seem like it could be a Demodog.
Netflix Geeked seems to have confirmed that it is a Demodog.
We know the Russians are capable of opening their own portals by now, and it has been
previously speculated that the Russians have used a portal to escape Hawkins while going
unnoticed.
The second poster says “The Lab.
Every story starts somewhere.”
Eleven is the only character here, seen walking towards a portal in the middle of Hawkins
Lab.
As mentioned earlier today, there’s this apparition here to the right that seems to
be a picture of a younger Eleven.
It’s possible that this hallway is destroyed not because of the portal itself but because
of the titular massacre that we will see in episode 7 this July.
Remember, season 4 is split and half, so the latter half will definitely arrive on July
1st.
Next up, we have the third poster, which came with the caption “Creel House.
Tick-tock."
Max Mayfield, Lucas Sinclair, Steve Harrington, Dustin Henderson, Erica Sinclair, Nancy Wheeler,
and Robin Buckley are all walking towards a gate in the Creel house.
Or perhaps using the Clock as a portal is a more appropriate way of thinking about it.
The Creel house was inhabited by a family in the 1950s, who faced a paranormal event
that resulted in the deaths of everyone except the husband and father, Victor.
He would then be accused of murdering his wife and kids in a newspaper clipping that
was published on march 26th, 1959.
This is the most intriguing storyline of the season in my opinion, since there are a lot
of horror movie vibes based on what we see in the Creel House teaser as well as set leaks
and spoilers.
There is also a wheelchair, which I assume is connected to the older Victor Creel that
we will see at Pennhurst Mental Hospital, being played by Robert Englund.
In a previous interview, Englund mentioned some interesting details about his character
which we won’t go over since they sounded like potential spoilers, but let’s just
say that this season will be gnarly.
Last, but not least, we have the fourth poster which came with the message “California.
Hold onto your butts, brochachos."
That phrase was said by Argyle in the “Welcome to California” teaser that came out on Stranger
Things Day back in November.
Argyle will be a new character played by Eduardo Franco, and will be Jonathan Byers’ new
best friend.
They are both seen here walking alongside Mike Wheeler and Will Byers towards a portal
in the middle of Lenora Hills, California.
If you are up keeping up with the leaks, the Cali party seems to be driving back to Hawkins,
so it might not be necessarily the case for them, rather the poster was done this way
just for consistency's sake.
Eleven is noticeably missing, but that could be because she already has her own poster
with Hawkins Lab.
There’s also the Surfer Boy Pizza van, which could be the Stranger Things equivalent to
the Mystery Machine from Scooby Doo.
Then there’s the main poster that unites all of the characters and storylines.
The tagline this season seems to be "Every Ending Has a Beginning."
We might not know what the ending looks like, but I think the beginning of the end is Stranger
Things 4 itself.
I believe season 4 could end with all of the characters walking into the Upside Down, having
to deal with Vecna or the Mind Flayer in a final battle that will decide the fate of
the world.
Unless the posters were drawn this way for marketing purposes, it seems like all storylines
will have a portal involved.
This might be the way that all of the different plots are gonna eventually connect.
Portals tying our parties together so they can put an end to the Upside Down and whatever
other danger that's looming.
Someone on the Hawkins AV Club subreddit made an interesting observation when looking at
the main poster, and it was that the portal altogether looks like the eye of Vecna, which
will definitely be a villain if not the main antagonist this season, as well as the monster
of Stranger Things season 4.
It’s also worth mentioning that Eleven is wearing the same outfit as the last person
that was seen in the fourth teaser.
There’s your confirmation that Eleven caused the explosion and not another test subject.
In the third poster, you also have Max and Lucas in the same pose as Eleven and Mike
from the season 3 poster.
Could it be that Lumax as a whole will be a focal point in the relationships of this
season?
Here’s hoping that the trailer comes very soon.
Overall, very exciting times.
And that is all that we have for today.
