They will never do that as it is the grade school equivalent of ending a story with “and they woke up and it was all a dream” an ending you only used because you were 40 minutes deep into a times writing and had not a damn clue how to wrap it up.

[@Tara-km2sc]

​@@mikeymike9926 as pretentious as it sounds, this has been my hope since the last season. I don't think its all or dream nor a d&d game. I think becuase the upside down is stuck in time, the night Will went missing. They hint several times that Vecna can control time. I wouldn't be surprised when Vecna is defeated, everything will warp back to the night Will went missing. Everyone is young again, as if it never happened. However, they carry all the memories of what happened. So little max, wakes up in California, Billy still alive. They both finally form the brother sister friendship they both needed. Eleven is rescued by hop, Bob is hyperventilating in his bed, wondering if it was just a bad nightmare. Ect. Ect. That's my theory. And I'd honestly love it...

[@Shakila-tp1vr]

​@@Tara-km2sc this is honestly a really great theory, like it would make a satisfying end to the show. ❤ Though the 1 thing I'd say is that Vecna can't rly control time- he does say that he refused to experience life like the rest of humanity bc of the birth-work-procreate-death process. That's why he won't live defined by time, and why he fixates on the clock. But honestly the only freaky time stuff that happens is the upside down being frozen in time according to when the gate was opened. So it's more interdimensional laws of physics than 001's own power. :)

Max wasn't killed off. She is hardly alive, but I suspect that she will return. Barb and Max' brother-in-law (Billy) were killed off, but Barb was introduced with the other characters, and Billy was killed after a full arc. He kind of had to be to connect Vecna to Max. Eddie follows that pattern...though, I'd argue his introduction and death served as commentary on high school life and how "outsiders" are often treated.

[@user-hn8qb2un8u]

Yeah, almost every single major character whose died has been a character introduced in that season.

[@bot-ms5io]

Duffer brothers are playing it safe, they aren't killing any main characters because they have seen how killing a main character is sometimes not the best idea, an example is Glenn from TWD, killing him made 25% of the audience stop watching so the duffer brothers are most likely not going to kill any main character. The only main character I see dying in the final season is Eleven to finish her story.

[@Amber86queenbee]

Also add in that GRR Martin apparently killed off a character he wanted to progress the story for GOT and all we received instead was bad fanfiction for the final season/s whilst he tried to write himself out of the problem.

At least 3 major characters died that I can think, seemingly permanently, during the span of Infinity War and Endgame and they served to show just how high the stakes were in the conflict.

These kids should make as much as they can on this show, because history says few if any of them will ever do another show/movie as big as this one. Child stars usually have it tough later in life.

If robin goes this season, the rest of whatever year it comes out will be over for me

The show needs him

[@earlwiebe5994]

I never seen one episode but I never thought anything was different with him

Honestly the biggest character death I see happening is Hopper and Will. Hop to save Eleven. And Will because of the hints of him being linked to the mind flayer

The council didn't want Anikin to be on the council it was about who can be there and who can't

I live in the town where the Stranger Things house is. It's in Georgia and used to be a bed and breakfast. Now it just sits empty but it's listed as a historical house because of the age and architecture. You can drive by and usually see people in front on the steps off the sidewalk taking selfies.

If dustin dies i would actually cry but i think it would be important to have that emotional connection

I WILL be ABSOLUTELY devastated if one of the main characters die😢
