If you are still processing the fact that Stranger Things is officially wrapping up, Samsung might have found a small way to soften the blow. The company has released a brand new theme and a set of wallpapers inspired by the hit Netflix series, giving fans a chance to bring a piece of Hawkins and the Upside Down directly onto their Galaxy phones.
The limited-time customization pack is available through the Galaxy Store and can be downloaded for free, but only until February 22. After that, the theme disappears, much like the eerie world it is inspired by.
Samsung confirmed that the release is a celebration of the final chapter of Netflix’s iconic sci-fi series Stranger Things, which has become one of the most influential shows of the streaming era. The new theme leans heavily into the show’s dark atmosphere, with visuals that capture the unsettling mood and supernatural edge fans know so well.
To unlock the theme and wallpapers, users need to either download or open the Netflix app on their device. Once that requirement is met, the content becomes available in the Galaxy Store across 186 countries. The collection is built around the fifth and final season of the series and includes five wallpapers showcasing familiar characters and memorable locations from the show.
According to Samsung, the design was created to reflect the unique tone of Stranger Things, allowing fans to weave elements of the series into their everyday phone experience. The company says the goal was to translate the show’s suspenseful energy into a visual style that feels immersive without being overwhelming.
Compatibility varies slightly depending on what you want to install. The full theme is supported on Galaxy devices running Android 15 or newer, although Samsung notes that some models may not be compatible. The wallpapers are more widely supported and can be used on Galaxy phones running Android 8 or later.
This collaboration is far from Samsung’s first venture into entertainment-driven customization. The company has previously worked with Netflix on special projects, including a Stranger Things inspired short film designed to highlight the Nightography capabilities of the Galaxy S22 Ultra. More recently, Samsung also released themed designs based on the animated movie KPop Demon Hunters.
As Stranger Things comes to an end, it marks the closing chapter of a series that helped shape modern streaming culture. For fans who are not quite ready to let go, Samsung’s new theme offers a small but meaningful way to keep the spirit of the show alive on their devices. Those looking for their next sci-fi fix can also explore a curated list of shows similar to Stranger Things that capture the same blend of mystery, nostalgia, and supernatural storytelling.
