WARNING! This article contains SPOILERS for Stranger Things season 4, vol. 2.
Nancy’s visions from Vecna may have secretly teased a major character's death in Stranger Things season 5.

While Eleven exhibited a new power to resurrect Max, Nancy managed to shoot Vecna and launch him out of Creel House, but would quickly realize he hadn’t actually been killed.
