Stranger Things Season 5 Volume 3: For fans of ‘Stranger Things’, 2026 will start with the end of their favourite show, as the finale episode will be released on the 31st of December in the US.

The makers of the show divided the season into three parts. Now that we have already watched the two parts spanning 7 episodes full of epic actions, emotion and drama, there is still a lot to be uncovered. Trust us, a lot is ready to go on floors in the finale episode number 8 of ‘Stranger Things’.

Name of the final episode: The Right Side Up

The finale episode of ‘Stranger Things’ season 5 volume 3 is ‘The Right Side Up ‘. Quite an interesting name, no? The title of the ‘Stranger Things’ first episode was ‘Upside Down‘. And now the final episode title suggests that this is where everything gets back to normal.

And by normal, we mean, Vecna aka Henry aka One will be killed. Everything (and, ultimately) Upside Down will be destroyed and switched back with The Right Side Up.

Runtime of the finale episode of ‘Stranger Things’

The runtime of the show as confirmed by Ross Duffer is 2 hours and 8 min. This is less than the final episode of Season 4. Fans anticipate a lot of scares and entertainment from the episode. At the same time, there is some disappointment among them as the runtime is shorter. That is how the loyal fanbase has become.

Release date and time: ‘Stranger Things’ finale episode in India

In the US people could enjoy the episode in some of the selected theatres as well as on Netflix on the 31st of December 2025 at 8 pm.

But in India, we will be able to catch the episode on the new year which is 1st of January 2026 at 6:30 am. What a beginning of the year!
