Stranger Things Already Teased Why Vecna Won’t Die In Season 4
WARNING! This article contains SPOILERS for Stranger Things season 4, vol. 1!
Stranger Things has already teased that the Hawkins gang won’t be able to defeat Vecna in the season 4 finale. While the Stranger Things season 4, volume 1 ending granted the teens the information they required to understand Vecna’s motivations, the Hawkins characters may be in over their heads this time around. The Stranger Things season 4, volume 2 finale hints at a major battle between the town and the Upside Down, but, as Robin mentions, this is shaping up to be the time when it doesn’t work out well for the protagonists.
Stranger Things’ characters are taking on several foes in season 4, but the most dangerous threat comes from Vecna, a being residing in the Upside Down who has already murdered several Hawkins teenagers. While Eleven is unaware of the Upside Down villain's curses in Hawkins at the end of Stranger Things season 4, volume 1, her recovered memories from the Nina Project reveal Vecna's true identity. Born Henry Creel, he discovered he had powerful psychokinetic and telepathic abilities, but used them for vile purposes to slaughter innocent people. After murdering his sister and mother, Henry Creel became Number One at Hawkins Lab, where Dr. Brenner attempted to control and recreate One’s powers in other children like Eleven. After murdering everyone in Hawkins Lab in 1979, a young Eleven banished One to the Upside Down, where he grew into Vecna over the course of seven years.
