Stranger Issues Season 4 has a brand new clip, and it’s been posted on the official Stranger Issues Twitter account. Let’s see if we will decipher some clues from this newest mini-teaser from the parents behind the sequence.
What’s within the latest ‘Stranger Things’ Season 4 clip?
The clip is simply 12 seconds lengthy. This doesn’t seem to be a lot, however there’s really fairly a bit of data packed into these 12 seconds. Viewers see pictures of an outdated newspaper seen by way of a microfiche machine. The principle headline reads “[REDACTED] Claims: Vengeful Demon Killed Family.” We learn about Demogorgons, Demodogs, and Thoughts Flayers, however demons?
That is most certainly associated to a brand new character named Victor Creel, performed by Robert Englund of The Nightmare on Elm Avenue fame. Englund is taking off his Freddy Krueger gloves and buying and selling them in for a hospital robe from Pennhurst in Kerley County.
We’ve heard point out of Pennhurst earlier than in a quick dialog between Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo), and Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin.) In Stranger Issues Season 1, Mike desires to deliver a newly found Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) again to his home, Lucas balks on the concept claiming she might be from Pennhurst. When requested by Dustin what Pennhurst is, Lucas replies, “That nuthouse in Kerley County.”
Extra data on the microfiche about Victor Creel
We all know that Victor Creel has been in a psychiatric ward for years. This was within the data we obtained about new characters some time again. He’s been blamed for the crime of murdering his whole household, which is what the next headline reads, “The Murder That Shocked a Small Community.”
Earlier followers had talked about they believed the grandfather clock seen so prominently within the Aug. 6 teaser was within the attic of Victor Creel. The Victorian home we additionally see within the microfiche pictures seems to be the identical one we see boarded up in that trailer.
‘Killer or Tragic Victim of a Vengeful Spirit’
The teaser continues to indicate pictures of different newspaper headlines. The following one reads, “Killer or Tragic Victim of a Vengeful Spirit.” May the spirit actually be a creature from the Upside Down? We expect there’s a particular chance.
Creel has been locked away for years, and within the meantime, his home seems prefer it’s been condemned. With nobody residing in the home, we aren’t positive what precisely is occurring within the attic. We all know do The Duffer Brothers (creators of the present) are very intentional with their teasers and trailers. There’s most certainly a purpose we noticed the grandfather clock within the attic for a beat longer than different pictures within the trailer.
Some followers consider that the clock implies a nod to an upcoming time journey storyline. Others assume it’s an indication the brand new season will drop on New Yr’s Day as a result of the clock is placing 12. Nonetheless, one other group of followers believes the grandfather clock could also be a portal to the Upside Down. This may clarify how a creature from the opposite dimension may have made its approach into Creel’s home and murdered his household. If somebody hasn’t ever seen one thing from the Upside Down, it might be simple to mistake it for a demon.
We solely have a bit of longer till TUDUM, Netflix’s world fan occasion, will probably be live-streamed on Youtube. Till then, all eyes are on the Stranger Issues social media accounts to see if we get any extra items of the puzzle.
