Stranger Things: Tales From ’85 Season 2 Trailer & Images Debut
Netflix has shared the official trailer and new images for Stranger Things: Tales From ’85 Season 2, which will premiere on September 17, 2026. In the second season, with Valentine’s Day on the way, the gang must uncover the truth behind ghostly apparitions and a swarm of strange creatures causing chaos around town.
The new season picks up right after the events of the Season 1 finale. The crew resumes its regular activities of arcade gaming and HIC missions, as well as preparing for the upcoming Valentine’s Day festivities. There’s just one problem: A strange new phenomenon is surfacing all over their town of Hawkins, Indiana.
The crew includes Eleven (Brooklyn Davey Norstedt), Mike (Luca Diaz), Will (Benjamin Plessala), Dustin (voiced by Braxton Quinney), Lucas (Elisha “EJ” Williams), Max (Jolie Hoang-Rappaport), and Nikki (Odessa A’zion).
“We think that the kids are going back to their normal lives, but we start to discover that these flowers are popping up all over Hawkins,” says showrunner Eric Robles.
They may look beautiful on the outside, but there’s a supernatural secret embedded within those colorful petals. To make matters worse, “Nikki and Max are scheming to sell the flowers all over Hawkins,” Robles adds. “Now [they] are going to be everywhere, which creates a bigger problem.”
Upcoming episodes will see the gang return to familiar places, like Hawkins Middle School and the Palace Arcade. But they’ll also step into fresh territory. “What’s really exciting is we’re going to go places that we haven’t been to before,” Robles teases. “There’s a mine in Hawkins that we haven’t explored yet.”
The voice cast also includes Brett Gipson as Hopper, Janeane Garofalo as Anna Baxter, Jeremy Jordan as Steve Harrington, Alessandra Antonelli as Nancy Wheeler, Valeria Rodriguez as Rosario, and Jack Griffo as Jeff.
Ian Graham is co-executive producer, and the executive producers include Matt and Ross Duffer via Upside Down Pictures; Shawn Levy via 21 Laps; Hilary Leavitt; and Dan Cohen. Flying Bark Productions is the production studio of the eight-episode season coming to Netflix.
