The trailer for Stranger Things 2 is here to take you back to the Upside Down

The boys are back in town, and everything is not okay

“We gotta do this? Let’s engage.”

Holy macaroni, we’ve been waiting for this one for a long time. Well, a year, but still.

Stranger Things was arguably the TV highlight of 2016, and when Netflix announced that Stranger Things 2 would be landing on October 27, we could hardly contain ourselves.

Imagine what we’re like today, now that the trailer for second season has arrived. We’ll give you a clue: we’re totally not freaking out. Not at all.

The trailer shows Mike, Dustin and Lucas reunited with Will, who was lost in the Upside Down in Season One. But everything is not okay, as Will appears to slip in and out of the terrifying alternate dimension randomly.

“Nothing’s gonna go back to the way that it was. Not really,” a voiceover tells us. Be under no illusions: some freaky shit is going to go down as we return to Hawkins.

Soundtracked by Michael Jackson’s classic Thriller, the trailer is preparing us for a horror-filled, ’80s-pop-culture-tinged blast.

Roll on October 27, that’s all we can say.
