href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/stranger-things-season-4-release-date\/&quot;\">Stranger Things<\/a> fans \u2013 just hours after we got a first-look <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/stranger-things-season-4-trailer-newsupdate\/&quot;\">season four trailer<\/a>, more details have been revealed about the upcoming new episodes.<\/p>\n<p>As part of \u201cStranger Things Day\u201d on 6th November \u2013 marking the day that Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) first went missing on the <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/streaming\/netflix\/&quot;\">Netflix<\/a> series \u2013 the episode titles for season four\u2019s nine episodes have been revealed.<\/p>\n<p>They are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"&quot;ul1&quot;\"><li class=\"&quot;li1&quot;\">The Hellfire Club<\/li>\n<li class=\"&quot;li1&quot;\">Vecna\u2019s Curse<\/li>\n<li class=\"&quot;li1&quot;\">The Monster

still got a little while to wait before these episodes are streaming, with Stranger Things set to return in summer 2022 \u2013 which at least means more time to speculate about the meaning behind those titles!<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps most intriguing are the titles to episodes four and eight \u2013 \u201cDear Billy\u201d appears to be a reference to Billy Hargrove (Dacre Montgomery), brother to Max (Sadie Sink) who perished in the third season after a battle with the Mind Flayer, while \u201cPapa\u201d can surely only refer to Eleven\u2019s father figure Dr. Martin Brenner (Matthew Modine), also presumed dead following the events of the first season.<\/p>\n<p>Could the upcoming season four see the return of both these presumed-dead characters?<\/p>\n<div
