New “Stranger Things” Trailer Introduces A New Spooky Location

It’s been a long two years since we’ve seen Eleven and the gang in “Stranger Things,” but season four is finally heading our way. Today, the release date was finally announced (during the TUDUM event), but that’s not all, we’ve also got a new teaser trailer, that takes us out of Hawkings and to a new location, the Creel House, an old Victorian home filled with mysteries. The cast and writing team have stated that Season 4 is going to take the show’s story out of its smalltown home, opening things up for a bigger, more ambitious scope, that includes Russia where David Harbour is being held, a prisoner with the group believing that he’s dead, having sacrificed himself. “I mean, it’s bigger, that’s the first thing. In scope, in scale, even in the idea that we’re not in Hawkins anymore. We, locale-wise, we’re bigger. We’re introducing new stuff, but we’re also tightening and wrapping up in a certain direction

“Stranger Things: Season Four” Is Finally On Its Way

It’s been several years now since we’ve seen our favorite kids in Hawkins, Indiana, and producer Shawn Levy is very aware that “Stranger Things” fans are getting very impatient after waiting for what feels like forever for the hit series’ fourth season. To state the incredibly obvious, it’s been way, way, way, way too long, and it’s coming,” said Levy about the upcoming season. The good news is, we won’t have to wait much longer, the new season has now finished filming. I shot in Lithuania right before the pandemic. We have filmed in Georgia, Lithuania, and New Mexico, so suffice to say Season 4 is sprawling. It’s visually and narratively very ambitious, much more ambitious than the prior three seasons — The delay is due in large measure to COVID and the pace at which we have to work to do so safely, but it also happens to be the season that we chose to go much bigger. It’s
