How to watch Stranger Things season 5, volume 2 from anywhere

Netflix operates in over 190 countries, but if you can't access it because you’re going to be away from your usual TV set-up when the Stranger Things final episodes air, there's no need to worry.

You can still enjoy each of the finale episodes on Netflix with the use of a Virtual Private Network - a VPN.

A VPN allows you to change your IP address to that of the area where you want to watch, meaning you can tune in to the series, even if you're not there.

Our sister site, TechRadar, has tested all of the major VPN services and they rate Nord to be the absolute best.

They say, "It’s compatible with all of your devices, supports most streaming services, and ranks among the fastest. You can even install it on devices like an Amazon Fire TV Stick, Apple TV, Xbox, and PlayStation. So for a one-stop-shop, you can’t go wrong with Nord."

If you've never installed a VPN before, don't worry, it's quick and easy. Just follow these three steps:

  • Download and install the VPN following NordVPN's easy-to-follow instructions.
  • Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you want to watch Stranger Things Season 5, Volume 2 select 'United Kingdom' from the list.
  • With your VPN installed and server location set to the area of your choice, you can now watch the show. Head to Netflix, sign in, and see whether good can really triumph over evil.
