Nothing at this point makes Stranger Things fans sadder than the fact that they will be witnessing the drama in Hawkins for one last time. Stranger Things Season 5 carries immense expectations, but it is also under pressure to deliver a spectacular final season worthy of the decade-long investment fans have made. Led by Millie Bobby Brown, David Harbour, Winona Ryder, Finn Wolfhard, and the rest of the cast, the show is one of Netflix’s biggest successes, with its demand speaking volumes about its massive popularity. After a long silence, the makers have now shared a new poster for the final season, revealing that Eleven is missing. This revelation has sent the fandom into a frenzy, and here’s everything you need to know.

Stranger Things 5 New Poster Raises Questions

For the unversed, Netflix recently revealed its Next on Netflix slate for the new year, which included the Stranger Things Season 5 poster, confirming the show’s return in 2025. The poster announces that Eleven, aka Jane Hopper, has gone missing, and no one knows where she is. It even offers a reward for anyone who can provide information on her whereabouts. This has sparked intense discussions and theories among fans on Reddit.

The new poster states that Eleven was last seen "wearing a hooded jacket, walking alone in the vicinity of Hawkins High School on June 13, 1986." It further reads, "A reward totaling $3,000.00 will be PAID for all leads that result in the location of Jane Hopper or her body. Last seen walking on the sidewalk near Hawkins High School, where she mysteriously disappeared that afternoon, June 13, 1986. Contact the Hawkins Police Department if you have any information regarding the whereabouts of this person."

While the poster has sent many fans into detective mode, trying to decipher its meaning, Reddit users have already begun speculating. One fan theorized, "I think she has to go into hiding, right? Like if someone (i.e., the government) took her, would they then have her fight her way back to her friends in an episode or so? I know she always kind of has her own storyline, but I thought they indicated she'd be more involved with the Hawkins crew this season."

Another fan added, "I really don't think this implies a huge departure from where we left off at the end of Season 4. Sullivan’s faction of the military is after Eleven because they believe she’s responsible for Vecna’s murders, so she will likely be forced into hiding. There being some kind of incident in June 1986 is interesting, but that could just be when the military became aware she was in Hawkins."

The internet is flooded with similar theories, with fans praising the mystery surrounding Stranger Things Season 5. Many are convinced it will be a wild and thrilling season. Stay tuned to OTTplay for more updates on this and everything else in the world of streaming and films.
