Stranger Things 5 has once again crashed the internet, but this time with its finale episode. The last episode featured some emotional moments, including the separation of friends and Eleven sacrificing herself for the greater good.

Chapter 8: The Rightside Up marked the end of the Season 5 and by extension the entire series. The finale places all the surviving characters inside Mike Wheeler’s basement. They all play one last game of Dungeons & Dragons, mirroring the shot from where it all began in Season 1. This creates a heartfelt full-circle moment, almost shot-for-shot.

The Stranger Things Season 5 finale end credits feature a map with coordinates, sparking a theory about Eleven – but it’s not what it seems.

The 'Stranger Things' Season 5 finale delivers non-stop action, emotional goodbyes, and the long-awaited fall of Vecna. But the biggest question still haunts fans: does Eleven die, or is her ending left for us to choose?

Stranger Things only had a few real casualties in its final season after many fans feared Steve Harrington (Joe Keery) was most likely to meet his maker. Previous seasons, particularly the fourth outing left audiences bereft with the death of Eddie Munson (Joseph Quinn). The lack of deaths may have come as a surprise to many.

The Stranger Things fanbase have always loved a good theory, and Season 5 sparked more than a few. It didn’t take long for viewers to notice inconsistencies in Will Byers’ coming out speech, and many believed those moments weren’t a coincidence at all.

Stranger Things fans are speculating that Holly Wheeler could gain supernatural powers in the Netflix show's final episode, based on a D&D figurine scene from season 5

The ‘clue’ Netflix fans have spotted actually appears in the very first episode of season 5, titled ‘The Crawl’, when Mike Wheeler gives his younger sister a pep talk. This takes place after Karen Wheeler is asked to speak to Holly’s teacher when she spots her speaking to someone who isn’t there.
