Super creepy 'Stranger Things 4' teaser gives us a glimpse of Eleven's past
Watch Next

A new Stranger Things teaser just knocked us back to 2016, with a young Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) at Dr. Brenner's facility (Matthew Modine).

Stranger Things 4 probably won't do tons of flashbacks, given the fact that its child stars are on the cusp of adulthood, but the teaser is a chilling reminder of Eleven's past and the terrified girl we met all those years ago. When we last saw Elle in Season 3, she lost her powers and was planning to move away with Will (Noah Schnapp) and his mother (Winona Ryder).

A teaser from February revealed that Hopper (David Harbour) is still alive after his heroic Stranger Things 3 death, now held captive by the Russians. These videos give no release date info, but say "001/004" and "002/004" — which means we still have some waiting to do before we know when Stranger Things returns.

Seasons 1-3 of Stranger Things are streaming on Netflix.
