Netflix has revealed the first trailer for Stranger Things’ fourth season. The new season will be split into two parts: Volume 1 is out on May 27; Volume 2 starts streaming on July 1.

The Duffer Brothers, the shows’ creators and executive producers, recently announced that Stranger Things will end with the fifth season. The fourth season will star Winona Ryder, David Harbour, Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Noah Schnapp, Sadie Sink, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Joe Keery, and Maya Hawke.

Watch the trailer below!

There's a lot to unpack in this trailer, but what immediately jumps out is the seeming human/monster hybrid creature that appears to be the season's main villain. The entire trailer is bookended with his narration. We also see Max writing a letter to her brother Billy, who sacrificed himself to save several other characters at the end of last season and is, presumably, dead.

We get additional glimpses of Eleven's past, though she still doesn't have her powers back at least at the start of the season, and all the kids trying to adapt to a normal high school experience. And there's a view of Creel House in the Upside Down, and plenty of monster-fighting - such as Hopper against a Demogorgon and Steve shirtlessly fending off attackers, too.
