Ross Duffer promises a comeback post-vacation for Stranger Things as the series creator bids farewell to the set before the holidays.

&#8216;Stranger Things&#8217; Creator Ross Duffer Bids Farewell to Hawkins Backdrop Setting on Instagram Story

Fans of the Upside Down have been keeping their eyes glued to the screens for
any developing updates to surface on the Internet. The alert is higher than
before since the creators, the cast, and the director have often teased its
audience with pledges of the Stranger Things
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/] finale. Not long ago, the
Duffer brothers also made the announcement of their touchdown in Atlanta on
their socials.

Yet, a recent flare of updates from Ross Duffer’s social suggests that they
might be bidding farewell to where it all started.


ROSS DUFFER BIDS ADIEU TO THE BACKDROP OF UPSIDE DOWN

The Duffer brothers have repeatedly kept their audience on their toes with their
one-of-a-kind promotions. Some time ago, Ross Duffer also revealed some
behind-the-scenes content from the pre-production sets

However, now, his recent story on Instagram
[https://www.instagram.com/stories/rossduffer/3256466572486896240/] hints that
the creator is taking leave from the crux of the Stranger Things backdrop,
Atlanta. To keep the air clear, one of his next stories unveiled that the
creators might be taking leave for the holiday season and will be back sooner
than anticipated.

In his story, there is a sign-board cueing at “Hellfire Way” captioned with
“Goodbye ATL…”. Stranger Things delved deep into the chronicling of the 80s
classics with the inception of the Hellfire Club. The members of the club were
mostly outsiders, including Eddie Munson, Dustin, Mike, and Lucas. While
Munson’s retreat to the club seems bleak given his death, there is hope that the
club will revive once the vacation spirit lowers down.

Given that the team is now turning homebound, leaning on the holidays, the
possible comeback will adhere to the recently revealed filming schedule.


WHEN IS STRANGER THINGS GOING INTO PRODUCTION?

Even though the Duffer brothers and the team are taking their holiday breaks,
their filming resumption has a timeline now. As per the Deadline’s report, the
shooting for season 5 will begin on January 5th or 8th. The fifth installment
will draw an ending to the saga of the Upside Down shedding light on the
lingering questions that were unanswered in the fourth season.

Per the timeline, the series would perhaps witness an early 2025 release between
February and April. Given Ross Duffer’s recent story already put the limelight
on one of the names being in scratches from the cast list, there might be an
upsurge of fan theories. Although the road seems rather long, the reprise of the
favorite characters might make up for it. As the fifth season will finally
loosen its grip on the cliffhangers of the last season, we might say that the
wait would be worth it.
