The latest trailer for Stranger Things Season 4 shows that a war is brewing and the people of Hawkins are at the center of the storm. Without Eleven and her powers, the war is pretty much lost, so that points to her having to do something to face her past and take back what she lost.

Also, we finally know what brings Joyce to Siberia, she receives a mysterious package, where she is likely to learn of Hopper’s fate.

The most important detail is Creel House, an old and abandoned house where the Steves, Dustin and company meet, probably looking for answers and a way to deal with what is to come, part of this is a new monster that appears alone a few seconds into the trailer, but that seems to be why Hawkins is the epicenter of Eleven’s powers and the Upside Down.

Stranger Things Season 4 plot

The Netflix synopsis reads that: Six months have passed since the Battle of Starcourt that left the town of Hawkins plunged into terror and destruction. As they continue to deal with the fallout, the friends are separated for the first time, and navigating the complexities of school doesn’t make things any easier. In this most vulnerable moment, a horrifying new supernatural threat emerges, presenting a gruesome mystery: if they can solve it, they could put an end to the horrors of the Other Side.

Additionally, a poster was revealed confirming that the friends are going to reunite for what appears to be the final battle.

Creel House

The new Stranger Things Season 4 trailer confirms that we’re going to see it in 2022, but it also lets us see a different story that happens in the past. The group of Hawkins teens visit the Creel House, a seemingly haunted place that years ago experienced its own supernatural phenomena.

We don’t know who the family is or what the relationship could be with Eleven, but it is clear that strange things happen in that house and that at least someone there had some kind of powers. Could it be another epicenter to open up the Upside Down again?

The official images

Netflix shared a series of images of Stranger Things 4 where some clues are revealed. We can see Nancy and Robin entering what appears to be the Creel House, the friends working together on some kind of project, probably to rescue Hopper, and Joyce on a snowy piece of land, which could be that point in the world where Hopper he is a prisoner. Besides, we get a glimpse of some of the new characters joining in Stranger Things Season 4.

What about Eleven’s siblings?

The trailer of Stranger Things Season 4 for the series takes us to what appears to be a hospital where we can see children playing with different toys, but this is not just any place, it is the laboratory where Eleven spent part of her childhood conducting experiments, and it was not The only one.

The video shows more details of the rest of the children who were part of the experiment, which hints that we could see more of them once Stranger Things 4 arrives.

Live of David Harbor and Millie Bobby Brown

Before the premiere of the highly anticipated Stranger Things Season 4, David Harbor made a live on Instagram where he appeared wearing the makeup of his character, whom we could see in a first teaser that confirmed that he was alive somewhere in Russia.

Harbor said he was going to read snippets of the script, but before he could reveal any major spoilers, Millie Bobby Brown walked into the video to ask him to stop before he was fired. In the end , Harbor didn’t say anything important, but the video reminds us that the premiere is not far away, by showing that the two actors were not together, it confirms that it is likely that we will not see Hopper and Eleven together for much of the new season– Stranger Things 4.

A new villain in Stranger Things 4

According to The Sun, Stranger Things Season 4 will have a new “bad boy” to replace Billy, this is Levon Thurman-Hawke, brother of Maya Hawke (who plays Robin) and son of Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman.

Not much is known about the character, but Levon was seen on set dressed in a punk rock style and in one of the images he even appears with Steve, which leads us to think that it could be one of his co-workers.

What happened in Stranger Things Season 3?

The now-teenage kids of Stranger Things seasons are enjoying a monster-free summer, but their vacation is running out when they discover that some very weird things have been going on in town.

Erica, Steve and Robin discover that there are Russian spies in Hawkins, Dustin is busy with his new girlfriend, Mike and Lucas are freaking out in their own relationships, and Hopper doesn’t know what to do to get Joyce to give him a chance, and things get worse. When they discover that the Mindflayer, which had possessed Will, is now stealing from their neighbors to create a super monster capable of destroying them all.

The team finds out that the Russians are trying to open a portal to the Upside Down under the new mall and make a plan to stop them. Once there, Eleven is attacked by the monster and loses her powers, so everyone has to help her. Joyce and Hopper manage to enter the Russian laboratory to destroy the machine that opens the portal, they go down together and realize that someone has to sacrifice themselves to save them all.

Hopper offers to turn the two keys needed to destroy the machine, it explodes and the portal closes, but after that there is no sign of the Sheriff anywhere. Thinking that Hopper is dead, Joyce takes her and Eleven ‘s children and they move to another city, but a post-credits scene shows that there is still hope.

What about Hopper in Stranger Things 4 story?

At the end of Stranger Things Season 3, Hopper sacrifices himself to save the world and everything seemed to indicate that there was, but Netflix has already revealed a first teaser in which they show Hopper’s fate. The Sheriff of Hawkins is trapped in what appears to be a Russian military base in Siberia in the Stranger Things 4.

This means that Eleven and company are going to have to work together again to save him and put an end to the Russians’ plans to use the power of the Upside Down for world domination.

Theories about Eleven, Hopper and new villain

There are many theories about what will happen now that Eleven has no powers and that there is a huge monster trying to destroy everything. The first says that, being infected by the Mindflayer, Eleven could become the villain of the story , another says that Hopper was brainwashed and is now working for the Russians, or that we are going to see one of the Eleven’s brothers using their powers to help the Soviets, but, there is another more important one that emerged when the title of the first episode of Stranger Things Season 4was revealed.

On their Twitter account, the creators of the series revealed an image accompanied by the phrase “Looking for new members… will you join? “, The image revealed that the title of the first episode will be Chapter 1: The Hellfire Club and, although doesn’t reveal many details, it was enough for fans of the series to start making their own theories about it.

Hellfire Club is the name of an exclusive British secret society founded in the 18th century, but it probably sounds familiar to you because it’s also the name of the group of Marvel villains that makes life miserable for the X-Men. The club first appeared in 1890 in the comic Unncany X-Men #129, which makes us think that it is probably a name that the children, rather adolescents, of Hawkins could give to the new enemies they meet, which are going to face Stranger Things 4. This season is no longer limited to the Demogorgon and the creatures of the Upside Down.
