This is how Stranger Things season 2 almost ended

But, apparently, the situation could have been even worse. Throughout the season, Will took control of the Mind Destroyer after his first season visit to the Upside Down. And while he got out (somewhat) unscathed, the writers confirmed that Will could have been the cause of his father’s death, which was obviously doomed either way.

Also, this problem isn’t going away anytime soon: Will confirmed in the season four finale that he and Vecna ​​(Jamie Campbell Bauer) are still connected after the second season reunion. And now that Vecna ​​has managed to merge the Upside Down with Hawkins, Indiana, things are clearly about to go awry.

“We all already know that Vecna ​​and Will have a history,” Bauer told E! News only in July. “So it would be nice to get back there, to put it mildly.”

I hope we learn the fate of Will soon. The same Twitter account confirmed that the writers’ room is currently working on the fifth season of the Netflix mystery drama, tweeting on August 2, “Day 1.”
