"It was always you," sobs Eleven as she flashes back to the Mind Flayer's possession of Billy's form in earlier seasons, realizing it was actually Vecna seeking to open gates from the Upside Down. He becomes "the predator he was always meant to be" with the aid of the hideous Mind Flayer.
In a flashback, we see Vecna/Henry/One explore the Upside Down, a realm he sees as unspoiled by humans.
He blames Eleven.įrom Russia with love in Stranger Things season 4. Unfortunately it doesn't land as Henry doesn't blame the ordinary, mediocre man Brenner for turning him into Vecna. Eleven deploys not her telekinetic powers, but her empathy for Henry. The creature formerly known as Henry Creel regains the upper hand, crucifying Eleven against the now-familiar door of the murder house as Max is raised up to become the final sacrifice. Fortunately, Eleven hits the dancefloor just in time to face the demon she inadvertently created. Lucas realizes he never wanted to be popular and normal, but his fight with Jason smashes Max's musical lifeline. (Battle, geddit?) To help Dustin escape, Eddie heads back into the Upside Down for a sword fight with a swarm of demon bats. In the Upside Down, Robin and Steve and Nancy are all grabbed by choking tentacles as Eddie and Dustin go into bat-tle. Then there's a striking image of balloons bursting in a shower of gore as the school dance turns into something darker to the strains of Dream a Little Dream of Me by Ella Fitzgerald - the song playing on the radio when Henry Creel murdered his family. Max finds herself in the Hawkins Middle School Snow Ball of 1984 as The Police's 1983 mega-hit Every Breath You Take plays - just like at the moment when Lucas and Max kissed at the end of season 2. In another poignant moment, following Steve's speech about kids in episode 8, he shares another vulnerable heart-to-heart with Nancy in this episode. But in one of the season's heartfelt intimate moments, he reconnects with Will. You might be forgiven for forgetting Jonathan was there this season as he's mostly been in the background of a show with so many characters. The unique personalities of ordinary folk play a crucial role, as Argyle's pizza-making and Eddie's shredding also help save the world. I love how it isn't just Eleven bringing her superpowers to the fight.
Luckily they have a flamethrower.Īre you ready for the most metal concert in the history of the world? In the Upside Down, Eddie discovers a demonic copy of his ax and rips into Metallica's Master of Puppets to draw a horde of demon bats across a hellish dark dimension. It just means busting back into the Soviet jail. In their matching parkas, Hopper and Joyce realize they too can join the fight from where they are. Hopper gets through to Owens' assistant, who brings them up to speed on the danger in Hawkins.
