Stranger Things 5 Conformity Gate Theory
Digest more
While the theory is unlikely to be true, more Stranger Things content is indeed coming. Netflix is releasing a documentary about the making of season 5 on January 12 2026, which is a far more realistic follow-up to the platform’s biggest series ever after its feature-length finale.
Stranger Things finally reveals the truth about the Mind Flayer and Vecna, but it screws everything up by the end.
After building up momentum in Volume 1, Stranger Things Season 5 came to a screeching halt in Volume 2. The second part of the final season of Netflix’s mega-hit sci-fi series spent far too much time stalling the action with grueling, cheesy heart-to-hearts, riddled with awkward dialogue, all nuance and subtext be damned.
Now, some fans are circulating a theory called 'Conformity Gate' about an alleged secret episode. The Conformity Gate theory suggests that the Stranger Things finale was a fake-out - that it wasn't the real ending. Now, fans believe that Netflix will release another episode of the series that will serve as the real finale.
Tickets are available for purchase on the "Stranger Things" Season 5 finale website at st5finale.com. Fans can find screenings near them by searching a ZIP code. Ticket prices vary by theater. "Rightside Up" runs for 2 hours and 5 minutes, according to a Netflix news release.
