What do you want to see in the fifth and final season? Let us know in the comments!

That last episode wich was 2 hours and 22 minutes long is better than most of todays movies with the same runtime. Not one second was I bored. The creators of this show deserve an Emmy for this show

Worried El might sacrifice herself as she would probably have to become a benevolent version of Vecna or take over the Upside Down and Max may have to go there too to keep living. That’s my crazy theory.

[abigailaceves]

God, I just hope the fifth season will be a satisfying conclusion to Stranger Things.

[AnthonyWrightFilms]

I have a feeling that Will is gonna have a MUCH bigger role next season.

It all started with Will, it seem it will all end with Will. Hopefully everyone will be together in season 5, they were separated in Season 4. But its heavily implied Vecna has a strong connection with Will. Eddie will hopefully get his heros funeral, the town will know all about the monsters and the upside down. So hopfully that means Dustin can tell everyone the truth. Max i really hope can be healed, it would be devastating if she could no longer see. But i get the feeling she could be like a Puppet to Vecna for a while.

i love season 4 so much. its more darker and mature than previous seasons! vecna is a great villain and the visual effects are good.

Man.... I really wanted a Argyle and Eddie scene together. I think that would have been great. Talking about Purple palm tree delight, music, everyone's problems and how they got thrown into all of the madness.

[mrdeeds]

I see Will sacrificing himself to complete the story. It began with him and will end with him.

[Rodeo_Wizard]

I don't mind seeing a Stranger Things spinoff led by Steve. Steve has been an awesome character since his redemption from being a jerk to a loveable fan favorite.

[lsmatheny]

I want Dr. Owens to still be alive -- he was the good scientist who really cared ethically for El!

[krazytaxicabbie]

Eddie! You’re my super hero!
So pissed he’s considered dead!
But…if he’s brought back it would be bitter sweet.
Rip Eddie.

I'm thinking that the whole reason why El wasn't able to find Max was because she wasn't in her body at all. When she died, Vecna absorbed her soul into his mind, like he did with all of his previous victims into his mind.

Said by him 8:47

And confirmed by Brenner in the episode 8

So hopefully in season 5 when they defeat Vecna for good this time Max will wake up from her coma

[celticwolff]

I want Kali to return. If there is a final battle, the heroes need all the help they can get.

[atlasprime]

I hope the people of Hawkins finally learn some truth about what has been happening since season 1.

[Groesch]

Out of all the hallucinations the victims saw, Lucas freaked me out the most. Dude's too much of a frikkin' angel to be that demonic!

[lilymae]

Mike seems like he will be Vecnas main target in order to hurt El

[littlehotcheetos]

Vecna/Henry/001 should be known as VH1

[jeddriggers]

A spinoff for Hopper and Joyce would be awesome. Kind of a supernatural investigators kind of thing.

[FlightyDollGaming]

They need to bring Eddie BACK 😤 that hurt my heart so much 🥺
