Vecna had a callback from that scene with Eleven and Billy when Billy told her to “stay very still and that it would all be over soon” when he told Max almost the exact same thing during the season 4 finale.

Even if they didn't have the foresight, I have to applaud them for adding connections between seasons as they go. Continuity is very difficult and I think they've done a pretty good job

[kristijan]

Good guy Vecna, waits for summer break to show up. Doesn't want children to miss school!

The clock chime gets louder and more noticeable over the seasons.

I think the reason Will was chosen to be the host, was that Vecna wanted to established a connection to someone in the real world. That was probably what was happening to him when Joyce and Hop found him. Vecna wanted him alive so that if Will ever made it out, it would be the perfect cover. Both are described as being sensitive, not belonging, so it would be very easy to blend in using Will. Also, any strange behavior could be passed off as PTSD.

He probably knew using a Demogorgon as a host wouldn't get him very far. I mean, El just obliterated it, but with Will, he's surrounded by people who love him, so they couldn't just kill him to get rid of Vecna's presence, like they did the Demogorgon. So his plan in Season 1 was probably to find someone weak and helpless that he could use their defenselessness as a defense tactic for Season 2, but when that failed, he decided to go for the opposite in Season 3, and get someone strong and intimidating.

8:33 "we can clearly hear clock chimes" *<80s drummachine/synth tom plays>*

The Duffer brothers have talked about how they first wrote the show to be a limited series. The first season was written to be the only season, but then Netflix wanted them to tease a possible second season if it proved popular. They have also confirmed that the figure in the road is the demogorgon.

I fully believe that Vecna was not planned ahead of time and only came up while writing season 4. The clock sounds in seasons 1-3 were just a motif.

Will has been portrayed as a wizard multiple times in the show “Will the wise”. In season 4 Dustin described Vecna as a Dark Wizard. Interesting correlation

[lorem.thenerd]

I’m a firm believer that they made the prosthetics for the demigorgan in season 1 and revisited the scene later for inspiration on Vecna. I think that Vecna used his abilities from the upside down to help out the demogorgan with getting Will.

Billy was the only one who broke from Vecna's control without music

[jameswarner]

Let's just remember that Stranger Things was originally an anthology series but due to the massive popularity of the cast and the story of season 1 they changed course.
There was no Vecna is season 1. There was no plan. They just made things work and tied them together because that's what good writers can do.

Great video!
I believe there’s an even earlier scene in season 3 where Vecna realizes he is talking to Eleven.
*Spoilers ahead for anyone who hasn’t seen season 3!*
This is when El and Max go to Heather’s house and find Billy and Heather having dinner with her parents.
We already know something is up with Billy. He isn’t wearing his earrings like in season 2 and he calls Max his “sister” something he never did in season 2. He always made sure to call her his stepsister.
So, after Max and El come into the dinning room. Billy introduces Max. He walks up to El and asks her who she is. She says her name El and there’s this look in Billy’s eye and even his voice changes a bit when he repeats her name. Even the way he stands is a lot like 001 does in the lab. Just look at how Billy holds his hands in that scene. I just think It’s awesome to see all the clues that were right in front of us.

Another time that the clock clime appears is when heather comes to billy in the shower and asks him if he’s okay, but billy hearing a threat. (S3) There’s a chime there, too.

[WALKERxBAIT]

The scene between Billy/Vecna and El at the cabin is probably my favorite scene in the whole show! The stakes, the acting, the tension! I love it. Dacre crushed it there!

[themoistfeltlipsofsatanasamupp]

13:54 I think one thing that makes this scene so great is that you can see Billy’s emotion just as well as you can hear Vecna’s through his words. I’m pretty sure Billy’s tears in that scene are his own.

[GJMinions]

I personally believe the figure in the road was the demogorgon

[extendetBG]

Always felt something was off in that opening scene. Demogorgons are portrayed as brute and savage monsters, but in that scene the monster is acting very intelligent in the way that he takes out the doctor (elevator sealing - when you would least expect it), unlocks (instead of just... go through it) Will's door, and when it takes Will from behind. But it looks like it was the gorgon all along, cause otherwise Will would have mentioned it, cause he actually saw it while getting grabbed. Was the gorgon controlled... that is the theory I am going with. Surprising attacks and "unlocking" is not something that gorgons have never done this far.

[RadioJosiah]

I think season 1 went more or less according to Vecna's plan. He had the Demogorgon grab Will, but let him escape once he was on the other side, and kept the Demogorgon away from him so he could reach out to his mother and serve as bait. When he sensed that someone would be coming through for him, he had the Demogorgon take him and impregnate him. He allowed Joyce and Hopper to enter, cross town, and take him home without interference. The conspicuous lack of hostile creatures in their path was by his design too. The stage was set for Vecna to start crossing over.

[seraphitella]

I have a theory that Vecna went after Will because of his past. As we know, Vecna targets people with Trauma which would work with Will as he’s suffered from an abusive father, bullying and homophobia. There has also been parallels between Henry Creel (as a child) and Will as they are both described as “sensitive kids” and for example both of them drawing the mind flayer. This also creates interesting opportunities for season 5 as their relationship/bond hasn’t been fully explored yet.

[erickleefeld]

Fan explanation to clean up the telekinesis during Will’s abduction, and some other early quirks from Season 1: The physical creature chasing Will in the first episode was the demogorgon of that season, not Henry/Vecna in the flesh, but Henry was possessing it throughout the story.

The demogorgon was an imperfect host, still a feral animal at heart, so Henry’s abilities with it were kind of limited. He could do the door trick, and in the season we saw he could open up some brief gateways if there was blood for the beast to hunt at night. So he had a host, but as a psychic who preys on others’ needs and fears he was limited by this specific host’s primitive set of desires. (Thus, his strategy to implant a demogorgon larva into Will, and to cultivate him as a human host, “the spy” back on Earth in Season 2.)

Also, he’d briefly gained this ability to open gates from being in psychic connection with Eleven when she first saw the demogorgon, and in her panic she opened a gate. But when she cast the beast away at the end of the first season (while it was Henry’s host) he lost the ability. Everything since then has been a quest to both get that power back, and to spread the Upside Down over Earth.
