Both Will (Noah Schnapp) and Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) have connections to Vecna and the Upside Down. Fans learned that Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower) was originally the first subject of Dr. Brenner (Matthew Modine) in Stranger Things Season 4. Eleven was also part of the group of children Brenner was experimenting with because of their supernatural abilities.
In season 2, only Eleven had the power to close the gate to the Upside Down, and that has stuck with viewers over the years. What if the only way to destroy the Upside Down and Vecna is by Eleven sacrificing herself to save her friends? It’s a popular theory and one that might actually have some legs.

Could Will Byers’ Death be the Key to Defeating Vecna?
Along with Eleven, fans think Will has the highest chance of dying in season 5. Season 2 showed that despite Will’s rescue from the Upside Down in season 1, he still had a connection to Vecna. He was used as a spy for the monster to see what the kids in Hawkins were up to, and in season 4, viewers learned that the Upside Down was frozen in time and it was frozen on the day Will was kidnapped.

All of these little bits of information, plus creators Ross and Matt Duffer saying that Will is an integral part of the final season have led fans to believe that Will might be shuffling off his mortal coil before everything is said and done.
Steve (Joe Keery) was never meant to survive past the first season of Stranger Things. He was originally created as the stereotypical evil ‘80s boyfriend, but Keery’s charm wormed its way into the Duffers’ hearts and they kept him around for the long haul. However, some fans don’t think that means he’s safe.
Steve has essentially completed his journey from being the popular jock who only cares about himself to being someone who is entirely invested in the wellbeing of the others, especially Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo). Where else is there for him to go?
“I think Steve is gonna die in the finale,” one Reddit user wrote. “It would end his arc perfectly and it would be probably the saddest and biggest death of the entire show.”
Granted, if the Duffers kill off Steve they might have a riot on their hands.

“Just as a complete hypothetical, if you kill Mike, it’s like. … That’s depressing,” Matt told Variety in 2022. “We aren’t Game of Thrones. This is Hawkins, it’s not Westeros. The show becomes not Stranger Things anymore, because you do have to treat it realistically, right?”
