Plot Overview
In Hawkins, the scars from the Rifts opening remain. The group is united by one mission — to track down and destroy Vecna. Yet he has disappeared, leaving his plans and location unknown.
The situation worsens as authorities impose a military quarantine on the town and intensify their pursuit of Eleven, forcing her once again into hiding. As the anniversary of Will’s disappearance nears, an uneasy sense of dread returns. The last showdown is at hand — a darkness stronger and deadlier than ever awaits.
“To end this nightmare, they’ll need everyone — the full party — standing together, one last time.”
