Finding the release pattern of ‘Stranger Things’
Are you still scratching your head finding the release pattern? Do you think the makers of this strange show will have a simplistic release pattern? Do you think they will follow a mathematical formula for releasing ‘Stranger Things’ Season 4? Some of the viewers are actually speculating the release date of ‘Stanger Things’ Season 4 on the basis of their release history.

To satisfy you, we have put forth all the data here. Season 1 of ‘Stranger Things’ released in July 2016. Season 2 and season 3 released in October 2017, and July 2019 respectively, which confirms that Duffer Bros, won’t give you any predictive patterns.
Where lies the clue for season 4 of ‘Stranger Things’ release date?
If you stop calculations based on prior release dates and observe closely, you will find that season 2 involved Halloweens. You must be wondering how that matters. Well, ‘Stranger Things’ Season 2, if you remember, was released in the Halloween month. If this isn’t enough evidence, season 3 of ‘Stanger Things’ took Independence Day (4th of July) into its fold, so was released in July on Netflix.
There is solid evidence to suggest that the fourth season of ‘Stranger Things’ will also tie into another holiday. This could be Thanksgiving or Christmas. For that, we need to delve deeper into the episodes of season 3. When Eleven is leaving Hawkins with the Byers family, Mike suggests that it will be a good idea for her to visit her home town during Christmas.
‘Stranger Things’ Season 4 releasing in December 2021
You must be thinking if Duffer brothers were actually planning to treat us this Christmas, they would have released ‘Stranger Things’ Season 4 by Christmas 2020. But season 4 of ‘Stranger Things’ didn’t happen because of the pandemic led shutdown.
But Christmas 2021 is still waiting to welcome ‘Stranger Things’ with open arms. Though the show isn’t a typical Christmas special show kind, the fans who are eagerly waiting for ‘Stranger Things’ Season 4 will accept the Christmas release.
It is to be noted that these are just the speculations and we can’t say anything about the release date of ‘Stranger Things’ Season 4 until Netflix announces it officially on its platform. Till then, we just have the option of binge-watching previous seasons again.
