Does this fan-favorite character die in 'Stranger Things 5'?
What's the story
The Duffer brothers, the creators of the hit Netflix series Stranger Things, appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. During their appearance, they arranged Funko dolls of characters from the show on Fallon's desk in a way that could hint at how the show ends. The arrangement featured Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) submerged in water and Steve Harrington (Joe Keery) balanced on the edge. One of the twins also pushed Harrington's doll off the table at one point. Freaky!
Interpretation
'Stranger Things' finale hints: What do the Funko dolls mean?
The arrangement of the Funko dolls has sparked speculation among fans about its meaning. Eleven's position in water could suggest a possible sacrifice or a significant event involving her character in the series finale. Harrington's dangerous position on the edge could indicate that he is at risk of being eliminated from the show. Will (Noah Schnapp) was sandwiched between Henry and Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower) in a vertical line, raising more questions about Will's connection to Henry.
