Snowy Russia will provide the setting for the fourth season of the Duffer brothers’ science fiction horror series.

In a press release on Friday, Feb. 14, Netflix announced that shooting of the fourth season of “Stranger Things” is now underway. The news was accompanied by a short video showing the first images of the new season and the surprise return of Jim Hooper, who had been left for dead at the end of season 3. Unfortunately, however, he has been back to life, but is far from comfortable surroundings, in what the press release describes as “the snowy wasteland of Kamchatka.”

The fourth season will follow Jim Hooper’s struggle to survive in a Russian open-air prison, as he battles men and supernatural forces. Meanwhile, back in the United States, a long-buried dangerous power awakens and threatens the entire Earth.
