“Stranger Things” – Watch the New Season 2 Trailer from Comic-Con

The Show Returns to Netflix This Halloween

Jul 23, 2017 By Christopher Roberts Stranger Things

A new trailer for season 2 of Netflix’s acclaimed show Stranger Things has been shared, fresh from Comic-Con. This is the first full on trailer for season 2, following a series of shorter teasers. It begins with the four young friends in the arcade, before one of them sees visions of the Upside Down. All the major characters are featured and it ends with Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown). The show returns October 27. Watch the trailer below.

Netflix previously shared a synopsis for the second season’s plot: “It’s 1984 and the citizens of Hawkins, Indiana are still reeling from the horrors of the demagorgon and the secrets of Hawkins Lab. Will Byers has been rescued from the Upside Down but a bigger, sinister entity still threatens those who survived.”

Stranger Things became a culture phenomenon and was one of the most talked about new TV shows of 2016. It was Under the Radar’s #1 TV show of 2016 and won the Screen Actors Guild award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series. Netflix previously announced that the show was returning in 2017 and last August shared a teaser trailer that didn’t show off any actual footage from season 2. Back in February, during the Super Bowl, an ad for the new season aired, essentially its first real trailer, that showed off footage and announced that the show would be back this Halloween. Then earlier this month another teaser was shared and the premiere date was announced. Season 1 took place in 1983 and last year’s teaser promised: “In the Fall of 1984… The Adventure Continues.”

Stranger Things was created by the Duffer Brothers (Matt and Ross Duffer) and stars Winona Ryder, Millie Bobby Brown, David Harbour, Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Noah Schnapp, Joe Keery, Cara Buono, Sadie Sink, Dacre Montgomery, and Matthew Modine. It is inspired by such ‘80s classics as Poltergeist, E.T., and The Goonies. Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein of the Austin-based synthesizer band S U R V I V E composed the show’s John Carpenter-esque score.
