"Nearly ten years after its premiere in 2016, Stranger Things finally comes to an end with its fifth and final season, with the last episode hitting Netflix on New Year's Eve. But in the world of Stranger Things itself, not that much time has gone by at all. From its first season set in Christmas 1983, the show now takes place in the fall of 1987a span of just four years."
"In season 4, which premiered in summer 2022 on Netflix, the action picks up in March, 1986. The boys, plus Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) and Max (Sadie Sink) are in their freshman year of high school. The strange death of popular cheerleader Chrissy (Grace Van Dien) leads to the rise of Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower), who literally shakes up Hawkins with some freakishly devastating earthquakes. When the Upside Down tears itself open over town, the military moves in and locks all of Hawkins in quarantine."
Production for Stranger Things lasted nearly ten years, from a 2016 premiere to a fifth-season conclusion released on New Year's Eve. The internal timeline covers roughly four years, beginning at Christmas 1983 and reaching fall 1987. Season 4 occurs in March 1986 during the characters' freshman year and features Chrissy's death, Vecna's rise, earthquakes, and a military-imposed quarantine of Hawkins. Season 5 opens in fall 1987, about 18 months after season 4 ended. Max remains in an extended coma far longer than typical medical averages, while Hawkins endures extraordinary, nonnatural disasters heading toward a blockbuster finale.
