Netflix released the first trailer for the final season of ‘Stranger Things,’ and fans have already created a theory about the death of a character who has been present since the first season.
The final season of ‘Stranger Things’ arrives on the platform on November 26, and until then many fans can speculate who will come out alive in the final showdown against the villain Vecna.
After the release of the first trailer, many internet users analyzed the footage claiming that Will Byers, played by Noah Schnapp, will be taken over by the “dark side.” Reddit users stated that he would be possessed.
“It looks like Will is really going to be possessed, especially since it seems Erica has a syringe in one of the scenes!” wrote one of them.
“Is it just me, or does it look like Will is 100% going to gain some kind of power after seeing that trailer? It’s way too obvious,” noted another.
“Will is being possessed,” affirmed a third.
The story of ‘Stranger Things’ began when Will Byers was captured by the Demogorgon and taken to the Upside Down. Since then, his life has never been the same.
The series creators, the Duffer brothers, said that Will was going to be possessed in the second season to kill Bob (Sean Astin), but they changed their minds.
The trailer amassed over 1.2 million views on YouTube and 1.4 million on X (Twitter) in just two hours, exciting ‘Stranger Things’ fans for the saga’s conclusion.
