The streaming giant has confirmed that the final season's Volume 1,, released on November 27, 2025,, has become the No. 1 series in the world, with 59.7 million views in just five days, making it the biggest English-language premiere week in Netflix's history. The season topped Netflix's Top 10 in 39 countries and reached the the No. 1 spot in 90 countries countries, marking one of the strongest openings on Netflix ever.
But with the release of just 4 episodes in Volume 1, the Duffer brothers have left fans with more questions than answers. As audiences wait for Volume 2, know about the six biggest mysteries that will be finally addressed in the remaining part.
Beginning with one of the most shocking moments in 'Holly's kidnapping, everyone is confused by the change in 'Holly's behaviour, which shocked fans. They are unable to understand why she behaves calmly with 'Venca' as if she trusts him, in contrast with his reality. It has left fans wondering if she is playing a bigger game or does 'Venca' sees a part of himself in her. Another mystery is the reality of the huge, breathing, and muscle-like wall covering Hawkins Lab and some parts of Upside Down. Despite 'Eleven's powers, she cannot break it. Now, it is difficult to understand whether the wall is protecting something, is the source of the Upside Down, or something more dangerous.
Thirdly, everyone was shocked by 'Max's death and coma plot. But in Season 5, we saw how she is alive inside 'Venca's memory, which even he fears recalling. It is still difficult to understand why 'Venca'’ is avoiding the place and why 'Max'’ can escape back into her body for anan emotional returnreturn. Alongside, loyal Stranger Things fans might remember how music once saved 'Max', and it has been cleared that it decreases 'Venca's powers. But now he gives 'Holly' a cassette player and her favorite song, making everyone question whether he is immune to 'music' or is simply trying to manipulate her.
Fifth, and one of the biggest mysteries in Volume 1 was 'Will's sudden rise in power. He killed 'Demogorgons' using the same bone-cracking technique 'Venca' used in the last Season 4. Unexpectedly, his emotional connection to Upside Down has now become physical, and viewers feel that it could be a hint for something darker or lead to an even bigger mystery. Lastly, since 'Venca' dominated Volume 1, there was no mention of 'Mind Flayer,' and everyone is wondering if 'Venca' truly controls it or if he is just another puppet in the game. Needless to say, will have to wait for Volume 2's release on December 25, 2025, to find the answers.
Recently, Netflix shared a post on its official Instagram handle to reveal that Stranger Things 5 has become the world's bo. 1 show. Alongside this, the Duffer brothers expressed their gratitude to fans for the overwhelming support they have received for the series over the past decade. Meanwhile, the complete cast on the show, including Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp, Sadie Sink, David Harbour, and more, have delivered emotionally stirring performances and we can't wait to find the answers to these mysteries.
