Stranger Things fans, prepare yourselves for more mysteries and monsters: after a longer-than-expected wait, season 4 is almost upon us.<\/p>\n

The next chapter will be split into two parts, with the first releasing in May 2022, and the second later in the year in July.<\/p>\n

Stranger Things<\/a> seasons have always varied in terms of number of episodes.<\/p>\n

The first season only featured eight, while season 2 went on to consist of nine, before the show reverted back to eight for season 3. Season 4, meanwhile, will feature nine action-packed episodes.<\/p>\n

But the episode count won\u2019t be the only element making it one of the biggest seasons the show has ever had, with the upcoming chapter\u2019s supersized episodes<\/a> (equating to over 13 hours of creepy goings-on) also making it stand out from the crowd.<\/p>\n

Read on to find out how many episodes are in Netflix\u2019s Stranger Things season 4, as well as everything you need to know about the episode release schedule.<\/p>\n

Season 4 part 1 will consist of seven episodes<\/strong>, which will release on 22nd May 2022.<\/p>\n

In March 2020,\u00a0David Harbour (Hopper) revealed during an Instagram Q&A <\/a>that season 4 was originally \u201csupposed to come out\u201d in early 2021, but that the release date would be \u201cpushed back\u201d as a result of COVID-19.<\/p>\n

How many episodes in Stranger Things season 4 part 2?<\/h2>\n

The split for the two parts is a little strange (no pun intended).<\/p>\n

In contrast to part 1\u2019s seven episodes, part 2 will only be made up of two episodes<\/strong>, though they do have pretty hefty runtimes (to say the least), so fans don\u2019t need to worry about missing out.<\/p>\n

The two episodes will land on Netflix on 1st July 2022.<\/p>\n
