Vecna actor Jamie Campbell Bower ominously teases what the villain's goals will be in Stranger Things season 5. Stranger Things season 4 wrapped up on July 1 with the release of volume 2.

Meanwhile, the end of Stranger Things season 4 leaves it fairly clear that Vecna will be returning, and that the Hawkins gang will once more be dealing with the Upside Down leaking into their world.
