is there actually another episode of stranger things

There is not another secret or hidden episode of Stranger Things coming, but there is one more official project tied to the show on the way.

What’s actually coming next?

• The main Stranger Things story is finished with the Season 5 finale, which was released as the last episode of the series.

• Netflix has announced a final behind‑the‑scenes documentary (often described as a “final chapter” or farewell to Hawkins), rather than a new narrative episode.

Why people think there’s “another episode”

A lot of the buzz comes from:

• Fan theories and “Conformity Gate” style speculation that there would be a surprise Episode 9 or extra finale dropping later.

• Confusion around the split‑release schedule for Season 5, where episodes arrived in different volumes and on different dates and time zones, making it feel like something else might still be queued up.

Official word vs. fan theories

• Official coverage and entertainment outlets are clear: the Season 5 finale is the last episode; there is no secret extra installment planned.

• What is still coming is the making‑of documentary, promoted as a final look back at the series rather than a continuation of the story.

So, is there actually another episode?

• No hidden or surprise story episode is scheduled beyond the released series finale.

• Fans will get one more official Stranger Things experience in the form of that behind‑the‑scenes “final chapter” documentary, but it does not add a new in‑universe episode.
