*This is why I think Stranger Things will do time travel in Season 5!* 😲
Do you agree and what do you think?!
Kinda makes sense since Nancy and Steve and that other chic go back in time when they go to her house in the upside down
Agree ngl
There wont be a season 5. The last episode is 2 hours and thirty minutes, its a lot, i know.
It hasn't occurred to me.... But this is best theory I've heard, with what we know so far.... You've spotted so many clues. Your stranger things videos are done of the best. Thanks.
I buy this theory,
Now the question is HOW will time travel be achieved?
Perhaps 11 will travel back IN HER MIND, and change the events?
Dunno if that works, or has been done before.
In the D&D game in EP1 S4 Dustin is rolling the dice to beat vecna, he rolls an 11 which misses.. They need a 19 to beat vecna. What makes 19 you ask? 011 + 008. too specific to be an accident if you ask me, i think 11 wont beat vecna this season however her and kali can!
20 is needed to defeated vecna which is one more. 001 helped both el and kali escape and also taught them how to be stronger (find something that makes you mad and channel it) so he indirectly helped beat himself.
Genius
Bro you are a pro what a statement 👌😎
@@sequinjin8332 I think that's exactly why he's going to lose he draws from pain and anger.
During the circle competition Brenner tells them all not to rely on pain or sadness or they are certain to lose. (While eleven wins this competition I believe Brenner meant it in a deeper sense)
Now using the painful memories works to access their powers and bring them out but the battle between 001 and 011 El is quite clearly beaten while using her painful memories.that is until until she pulls power from a good memory of her birth and mothers love that her feel happy and loved and then easily banished Vecna.
The big bad is the mindflayer tho..
I’m really surprised there was no mention here of the fact that Nancy realized that everything in the upside down was how things were in 1983, the start of the series. That seemed to me like a pretty big clue that they might have to pull a Back to the Future II and go back to season one and stop Vecna without messing up the timeline.
Yeahh When Nancy visits her house in the upsidedown she said that the time there is like 2 years ago and that’s when it all started
True, like that was basically the producers going, “Hey, there’s time travel stuff in this!” The whole thing was also kinda just there then it was almost as if the normal, non foreshadowing scene resumed with them realizing Dustin was on the other side.
I personally got a “The Langoliers” vibe from the portrayal of the upside down in this season. Like it’s sort of how the “past” is degraded or decayed by the creatures in the upside down. Sort of like decomposers in the food chain but for time/space itself.
It's not everything tho. When Nancy enters it is but at the end of season 2 during the snowball scene you see it switch to the upside down and everything looks exactly the same. Even with the same cars. So i think it's possible, that the mind flayer can control time in the upside down
Agreed. That was the only thing I thought would appear beside the grandfather clocks, but i guess not.
Maybe the Hawkins portion of the upside down was created by Will when he was thrown in. Vecna showed you can manipulate it to your choosing. Maybe Will panicking and wanting to get home created accidentally as a coping mechanism. Which explains why it is stuck in 1983 as he was first brought there.
This makes a lot of sense actually
Kinda seems like Will is stuck in 1983 also. Dude is almost always unhappy when you look at him.
Vecna used his powers to do so tho whilst will doesn’t have any powers
@@darianbernard5487 alot people assuming thay will might die in season 5. bc why not it have started with will it might end with will. Also he feel vecna at seasson 4 last scene
I really hope time travel isn't involved. It always seems like a cheap way of figuring answers. I like how in the upside down they realized they were stuck in the year when the hole first opened. I do find that curious. I hope they do something more creative than time traveling to solve answers.
I exactly agree with yu time travel is way too cheap in Stranger things.
Not a cheap way if used right
I think it's not that they're "in the past," I mean they're literally able to communicate with people in the present just fine so they're still on the same timeline. I think it's just that the Upside Down didn't look like Hawkins until El made contact with the Demogorgon/Mind Flayer, and that it essentially took a screenshot of the world that hasn't updated since. Maybe because the Mind Flayer tried to merge the worlds? Hard to say. It definitely didn't look like anywhere life ever had or could exist when Vecna was sent there.
@@mrscaryman.955 not cheap at all look at all the signs in this video , it's called "stranger things" anything can happen
My thoughts exactly
Have you guys noticed how the counselor has clocks everywhere? Theres some in her office, her house, one around her neck! She’s definitely a spy
The teacher got infected in season 3 or at the beginning of season four. With will being so far away he made for a terrible host. Vecna needed new bait. And used the teacher to attach himself to the real world. Her house has some form of significance.
@@jerryporter5638 how sure are you?
@@aromedoghenechristian1072 90% sure she's in on it, 50/50 with her house having some form of significance.
I think the upside down is out of time and space and therefore it looks like the day when Will was taken because it still is that day. I definitely see us visiting the time when Will was in the upside down, with him maybe having these memories the entire time.
Great theory, I like it! So far, I've just assumed it's a copy of that day but time still passes, but yes time and space may be completely different in the Upside Down.
That makes no sense, if it is out of time everything would be frozen. And anything wouldn't move
Why tho, the reason the world is the same as the day will was taken, is most likely because there arent any people to change stuff like nancys room for example.
But this is refuted by the fact that Vecna's house from when he was a child is there too.
@@alexandersolbakken5541 There wasn't people to make it to be like that day either.
One could say that 11s mother is stuck in a time loop.
If there is time travel then bring my boy back plz
The time travel thing has been done so many times I really hope they don’t do that for s5. If we’re going off of the dice landing on 20 to represent 8 possibly coming back, that only gives you 19. And this is where I think Will will end up sacrificing himself because he still is connected to 1.
The bit with Will reminds me of Harry Potter- HP was one of Voldemort’s horacrux (idk if that’s spelled right, just stay with me here k lol). He left a part of himself in HP so, Voldemort couldn’t die unless HP did. I think this is a similar situation here with Will and 1. So 11+8+1=20.
or 11+8+1(vecna being the 1, not will) they all 3 destroy eachother.
idk why they don't just use a large dose of the drug papa used on one to control him. one literally said he would have to kill papa if he were to escape otherwise papa would use the drug to hunt him down and kill him. one also mentions that the drug not only weakens his powers but also lures him. idk.
11 will die😥😢
What bothers me about the time freeze, is we see the school being over looked by the mind flayer and it’s decorated for the winter formal, after will was taken but no one talks about
Also, Will was able to communicate through the Christmas lights that Joyce put up in the house, even though they went up after Will went into the Upside Down. Also, when Nancy, Jonathan, and Steve all fought the Demogorgon in the house and set it on fire, the mark it left was in the ground in both the regular world and the upside down
Yeah, the frozen in time thing is either a plothole or unexplained well yet. We can even see the upside down featuring snow ball decorations at the end of S2.
BIlly's car was also out front of the Steel Works in the UD when he got pulled into the basement.
@@skakirask that wasnt the upside down that was the overworld still
I wonder if the Upside Down is updated whenever Vecna or the Mind Flayer can access the brain of someone in Hawkins?
I don’t want time travel to happen in Stranger Things. Time travel is EXTREMELY paradoxical, and I feel like it’s way too complicated to just use it in a show as a plot device. A great example of the chair that time travel can cause is this German show called “Dark.” It basically demonstrates a world where time travel causes an infinite cycle of events, death and rebirth, etc. in the end, it’s revealed that stopping the perpetual loop from repeating would result in the destruction of that entire reality/universe. So if the Duffer Brothers were to implement the idea of time travel to Stranger things at this point, I’m afraid it would most likely only just make everything more complicated and chaotic, rather than drive the plot to a resolution and conclusion.
Yeah, although I made this video, I'm not a big fan of time travel, but can see all the clues that have been laid to it in Stranger Things. I'm hoping they go for a simpler, not overly complicated version of it, more Back To The Future.
Time travel isn't the answer cause 1 would still have his powers and atleast the way the story is now papi kept it under control n he didn't go on his killing spree to wipe out everyone out
@@FlicksAndTheCity yes, exactly. Preferably not the bootstrap paradox or the grandfather paradox…
Dark is done extremely well. If you actually pay attention you can follow the timeline. Plus it has rewatch value because everytime you watch it you see or learn something you didn't before which in my opinion makes it better because I really hate when a good show ends and then there's nothing else to watch.
I disagree. I do agree with you in saying time travel can be overly complicated and dilute the whole storyline. But time travel, when done right, can be an awesome plot device. It can be relatively simple as well. Just because you referenced Dark doesn’t mean that any show that uses time travel is automatically going to be extremely complicated with multiple versions of one person being major characters, possible destruction of realities, etc. I will say that it’s easy to accidentally create plot holes and write yourself into a corner when using time travel, so hopefully the Duffer Bros. will have done their homework if this really is the route they’re taking. But I’m excited if it’s going down this road!
On the other hand, I feel like all of the clocks appearing throughout the season could just be referencing One’s monologue about time. We’ll see!
Another key moment is Steve's dialogue with Nancy in S4, when they were in the UpsideDown in the woods, he said, that he used crawl backwards as a kid.. hence there's a posibility that Steve will travel back in time to save someone..))
has anybody realized how when vecna is stuck by the vines and is floating with them it kinda resembles a black widow spiders abdamin and the red shape looking thing that is also on vecnas stomach
I have thought the show has had a very cylindrical feel. One thing I noticed was a conversation that Hopper and Joyce have in the first or second season, can’t remember which one, but he talks about making out with Chrissy Carpenter. Odd that his old flame’s name is Chrissy. Then Robin notices the music box and picks it up when they are in Nancy’s room in the Upside Down. When the kids are rollerskating the are going counterclockwise just like the clock Henry controls.
I also feel there is a deeper connection between Will and Vecna. I think it’s possible Henry was gay and the reason they had to move was because of his feelings towards someone. In the 50s this would have been a HUGE issue and I actually wonder if his mother was looking into conversion therapy, like what happened to Alan Turing, who was possibly who Will was doing his hero project on. If this is the case it’s possible that Henry became susceptible to the Mind Flayer and that may be how he got his psychic powers.
If as some suspect, Will is gay, then if he is rejected he may end up back in possession of Vecna and the Mind Flayer. Season 5 could be trying to get Will back once again. This time with a lot more difficultly, because of the isolation and rejection he’s been experiencing since season 3.
So I feel the reason the Upside Down has gone back in time is because it all goes back to Will. He wasn’t killed like Barb because there was a recognition that he and Vecna share a common thread.
The fact that the upside down is 1983 essentially every time someone enters the upside down they're essentially time travelling back to a frozen point in time. Maybe there is a way to use the portal/tares to travel to different times in the right side up/upside down.
In season 4 episode 6 when Eleven is playing with the Plinko game in the rainbow room and One is talking to her, she drops one of the pucks down and it lands in number 6 upright. In that shot, you can see 4, 5, and 6 are like that. 7 is missing and 8 is laying flat. A little further in that scene and one drops his directly down flat on 1 just like 8. Back in season 2 episode 7 you get the feeling that 8 is kinda bad and is using bad memories and hate to fuel her powers. One told Eleven that she needed to channel “something that made him sad and also angry” the same exact thing eight told eleven to do. I feel like eight and One are connected and that she will return. Me and my friends figured this out together
A lot of small details 😂😂💀, but I do remember 8 telling her how to use her powers, just as one did.
How did 8 get out again? I’m kinda curious, and why wasn’t she shown in S4 so far
@@Dj_CaTz1 i dont remember if it ever got explained how she got out, but ive seen a few theories that suggest 1 migjt have aided 8 get out like he did with 11, except 8 didnt remove the chip in his neck before she left
@@Dj_CaTz1 8 explains that she looked for eleven in the rainbow room and didn’t find her so she waited for her powers to get stronger and then escaped when she had the chance. It was really vague and it makes me wonder where they took eleven in the time that she was the little blonde girl we saw in the flashbacks in season one to the time that she was the little shaved girl we see in season 4. Was she going through testing, getting her head shaved and her tattoo? Probably but in that time, 8 escaped and has been going down the darker path. It could be possible she’ll come back but used by Vecna since she’s already using negativity to fuel her powers. Little details do add up but we’ll have to wait and see what happens.
@@babybear5724 that's because 8 doesn't have telekinesis. i would go into wild depth about why i think 11 and 8 will team up and why 001 is the reason they got their powers but I've written so many paragraph filled comments of my theories and I'm tired lmfao
Stranger Things is to me, what Game of Thrones should have been. A thoughtful story, true to cannon, and allows the audience to either figure it out, or not without pushing the boundaries of narrative shifting. The writing is confident that it's story is uniquely fashioned. It rewards the observant mind. I am so obsessed right now. Haven't been this obsessed since Supernatural.
If Eleven can control time in the upside down they could potentially save everyone who died inside it
oh my God I was just saying that and someone else's comment I do think she'll probably have a possibility of bringing back everyone but she might die in it including him and everything will kind of go back to normal without them
That’s a really good point. The counselor can actually be a part of vecna and that’s how vecna knows so many detail’s without even knowing them and it’s just now that the counselor is asking about problems that vecna comes out but not before
Definitely because I don’t think they would have added the scene where Nancy said that they are two years into the past just for nothing. Probably it’s the only way to defeat vecna/one/Henry
I really hope they don't go back in time to beat the villain cause it's been over done.
Interesting watching your video now after seeing Volume 2 - where the 4 gates open and intersect at the Hawkins clocktower.
I mean if they time travel wouldn’t that mean that they’re basically erasing everything that happened in the show so far? So no gate to the upside down, no monsters entering the real world, no vecna’s curse. So this means that everyone who died isn’t ‘actually dead’ because they went back in time and prevented their deaths. Like Barb & Bob would survive cuz no demogorgon killed them, Billy cuz the Mind Flayer couldn’t have made it to the real world. Chrissy/Fred/Patrick cuz Vecna doesn’t exist (it’s Henry instead)
That might be the ultimate sacrifice though. Everyone will be safe and alive but they will lose their connections and character growth as a result.
@@ms.bubs4fun506 i really hope this doesn't happen. i'd be so sad
I totally missed that detail from the DnD game when they rolled an 11 and were defeated by Vecna! Anyway...awesome video...great attention to detail, especially in prior seasons. I do think time travel will be involved. I also really didn't think Kali would be back. I honestly didn't at all like her and how she tried to turn El against her loved ones in Hawkins (like saying Hopper was somehow bad for her) and get her to join her in a life of revenge...and was so put off when she wanted to leave because she didn't want to kill someone's father or be there when Kali did so herself. I think she *might* come back because I remembered the final episode is called "The Piggyback". I thought this would mean El is "piggybacking" off another one of the number's powers, but it would seem that Kali is the only one who is still alive. If they do use time travel I also hope that they don't undo the entire story and have, well, Jane never taken from her mother...it would be like everything she's gone through and worked towards in her life as Eleven and the relationships she's built would be for nothing. Very unsatisfying.
I definitely going to think time travel is going to be involved and I do think 11:00 my sacrifice herself to save her friends and to close the portal so her and the bad guy they're both probably going to die and everything's going to go back to the way it was including Max and everybody coming back to life
@@RedHeadThriller10 I think it will be Will who sacrifices himself honestly.
Netflix is planning spinoffs already, if they kill off 11, that doesn't leave much interest.
All the crossword questions are clues/easter eggs. Question 11 - Wife of Thor is Sif, and she is tricked into cutting her hair, that then turns into a magical helmet. Aka Eleven having to shave her head to wear the cables when she's in the water.
A captain keeps one - compass, aka Dustin?
The next is about rock and roll - Eddie
Household cleaning product - Chemicals? Hopper?
Question 34 - equal to 40 phons relates to sound and decibels, its the 'loudness scale'
Uniform - relating to the kids in the lab?
Flows through Germany - Danube river which I think is sometimes the Black river as it flows to the Black sea (maybe like the vines?)
Relative to Ostrich- Emu? Not too sure about that one.
I love this theory! And I researched possible answers for the ostrich relative: (idk how many letters it needed) but a cassowary is the world’s most dangerous bird, has a claw that quote: rivals Freddy Krueger's, they’re known to have killed humans & another BIG fact: they’re most active at twilight! Which made a💡go off in my head bc ALL of the Vecna’s victims were attacked at twilight! When I looked at the pics online of its claws they resemble Vecna’s long fingers! This is so cool
Oh and they’re considered the last surviving dinosaur…and Dustin mentions these demogorgans have been around since prehistoric times. If that’s not enough evidence idk what is 🤘
@@amandahallman1091 oooh nice one! I didn't get this notification til now wtf.
My theory is that will knows something really interesting about the upside down which is why it's still stuck in the time when will got vanished :)
Me already convinced after 1:30 that the Duffer Brother want to do something with time travel, but still watches *the rest of the whole video.*
I truly think that with much of this season happening in Russia, and the date so close to 4/26/1986...I believe that the final battle will be covered up by the Chernobyl disaster. I've been thinking scenario about this since the after credit scene last season. ( shrug) What do you think? 🤔
Dude that is a really brilliant point
Hey everyone, UA-cam is being weird with Stranger Things comments and disabling them unless they are all set to review, so there may be a short delay before your comment shows up!
for the clocks, i think they started off high pitched and dropped, sounding more broken as time went on if they planned everything out from the beginning, just a theory though since they sounded different and weren’t much of a focus
Well, if they do end up going Infinity War/Endgame level, I’ll bet that it either erases the events and they all wake up in a life where none of it never happened. Will never went to the Upside Down, Eleven stayed with her mother, similar to that of Jojo’s Part 6 where everyone lived different lives after Pucci died in a separate universe.
OR, Billy, Barb, and Bob somehow come back to life after stopping their deaths
i think that in the final season 11 will die. I think that she is, in a way, a embodiment of a gate to the upside down and the monsters will be able to get through as long as she is alive. her void ability is the gate to the upside down. i don’t think she created the upside down, but i think she is the only one to have created a gate there.
But the Russians had their own demogorgon and gate as well tho so I wouldn’t say she is the only one that can get there but yeah she definitely is like a key
maybe take away her powers i bet!
I’m sure there are other people in the world with her powers.
@@h3llboyyy407 I agree. take away her powers makes the show more interesting.
During the S4 The Monster & the Superhero episode, Eleven actually tells Mike that she doesn't belong, possibly foreshadowing her sacrificing herself to save everyone in the S5 finale.
I think your right on the cliffhanger. I think in the finale, 11 will go back in time and will try to undo what she did to 1. That'll back fire and make him "free"in the present world. Maybe that's what piggy back means. And "time travel" remember when they go to the upside down,it's two years behind. So technically, they're already time traveling.
Wow, I like that idea, although that would mean Vecna never gets created? Unless we going MCU time travel rules and an alternate timeline gets created?
It's not 2 years behind. It's just a picture of our world in that day
@@FlicksAndTheCity exactly! Thinking deep here, technically he's still vecna but henry. Like the groups plan is to send her back to the upside down and then she faces vecna down there in the possessed state and 11 just knocks him out or something and doesn't send him. Now fast forward to present day, and Henry kreel is just roaming hawkins,unleashed with his powers. Or like you said maybe they'll go the mcu way.But at the same time,I don't think they'll go that far. We'll see. There's alot of different ways they could go. I do think the main time traveling stuff will happen in season 5.the clock,the memory and time travel are the main focuses going forward. The gateways too. I think there's a bigger meaning for them as well,as to why he created them.
"Piggyback" is a term for when one person "piggybacks" off the other...like if Eleven would "piggyback" off another number to enhance her powers. That's why I think it could mean Kali might come back. I don't think it means Henry is a "piggy" and is coming "back", if that's what you meant...but they might reverse time and he might be back, that actually could be an outcome.
@@alfredohumberto2222 Yeah, when people have crossed over into the Upside Down and gotten stuck there they've been their present day selves and are able to communicate with the "right side up" in the present day. Their surroundings just look like they did 2 years ago. I can't really put together what is going on there.
That clock necklace was a very intriguing little Easter egg. Good catch. I do agree in hopes that they don’t go back and change the entire story.
By going into the upside down they are already kind of time traveling. The clocks might be foreshadowing but they also might just be using them similar to how Alfred Hitchcock used birds.
8:25 the way you were so right on this is so crazy, good thinking!!!
The time stopped in upside down when Will went missing or when the demogorgan appeared in Hawkins. I think that it is all related to the mind flayer. And Vecna is surely getting a boost in his abilities through the vines which allows him to tap into a certain fraction of mind flayer's power.
the time in upside down and real world is different because the upside down contains past like nancy's gun , eddie's guitar
your analysis has amazing level of details - great work!
Thanks so much and very glad you appreciate it!
Now this is a very thought out video regarding all the conspiracies! Some of these I didn’t even piece together. I’d like to see how time travel would work or if they’d use another plot device.
Thank you!
I definitely believe season 4 will possibly end as a cliff hanger relating to time. Good point, and thanks for the great video! I look forward to more related content :)
I don't know for sure if time travel per se will happen but I agree time is a very important factor for Stranger Things. I do wonder why time stopped when Will went missing and what are they going to do with Will.....
Remember Hazy Shade of Winter used in season one has the initial lyrics, "Time, time, time." I also believe it was Vecna stalking Will that night in season 1, as that creature hd the ability to move the chain lock telekinetically, something the Demogorgon has never been able to do otherwise. Remember also, when Hopper is first investigating the Byers shed, who zones out and has to be jolted out of it by his deputy. Was he starting to be sucked in by Vecna?
i agree. All this time, Vecna was the one stalking Will.. and the lights, demorgons could somehow make the lights flicker but only Vecna could make it glow so bright, indicating he's near. Also there were theories from s1 that he was actually looking for El, but apprently Will was the one nearby. I still don't understand Will's part in this season's lore apart from him being the first victim and atleast became the home of mindflayer for a sec. And the only thing that relates him to Henry/Vecna was they were both described as "sensitive child". Also Vecna feeds into people's guilt and secrets and the most obvious secret of Will is his real sexual identity/his love for Mike. The one who plays Lucas also said in an interview when he was asked about what word best describes s4 he said, " Traitor. " I couldn't think of anyone else being capable of being a traitor but Will, because for once he was a spy for the mindflayer. Wdyt about Will's role in Vol2? and until s5.
it would actually be incredible if the “demogorgon” that got will was vecna, buttttt if u freeze the frame showing the creature it is CLEARLY a demogorgon (shape of body, length of arms, head, and both hands being long, instead of 001’s singular long hand). also 001 couldnt open portals before season 3, he stole 11’s ability to portal open. andddd he hasn’t physically come into hawkins this whole time but somehow he could come into the real hawkins in episode 1? doesn’t make sense. the only hold up tho is that the demogorgon telekinetically manipulated stuff in the real world AND how the demogorgon could open portals. it’s a confusing plot hole that needs to be addressed. that’s why in S5 we gotta go all the way back to The Vanishing Of Will Byers
Time travel is essential to properly end the series. I don't think it'll be a "happily ever after" ending but if they use time travel, you can choose an event (or more) to undo a potential future. Think BTTF 2 when in 2015 Marty is working a dead-end job due to an injury to his hands. He's unable to pursue his music career. However, at the end of BTTF 3, he changes one variable. By not racing Needles he eliminates that future from occurring. Time travel in stories, if done properly, is amazing. If done poorly, well... it was good while it lasted. 😉
Ok, this video was totally mind-blowing for me! So many things that never even crossed my mind! I thought they were just props! Now I understand every single tiny detail was important. Thank you so much for shining this light! 🤪
I hope eleven and eight will work together and fight him I think the second half of the season will reference season 2 more since the first half references season 1 a lot
Yeah, we might get Kali in Part 2, but if not then I'm thinking perhaps in Season 5 assuming the end of Part 2 goes badly.
@@FlicksAndTheCity Hi, when is Season 5 being released?
Vecna going to win
when dustin rolled the dice during D&D, 11 wasn't enough to defeat vecna. however 11+8=19 and 19+1=20. 20 is what is needed to defeat vecna. 011 and 008 defeat 001. if 001 is vecna, why would he play into defeating himself? i think it's because 001 helped 011 become powerful enough and he indirectly defeated himself. i also think he helped 008. Kali says a lot of the same things to El to make her stronger like what 001 said to El to make her stronger. "think of something that makes you sad/mad and channel it" its as if 008 tried helping her too. and kali makes the dude with the mohawk see spiders, like henry/001's weird obsession with spiders. 001 has the same abilities as 008 and 011 combined so he indirectly trained both of them to be powerful enough to stop him. therefore 011+008+001=20 which is how they defeat vecna. also, owens said the nina project might not only get el her powers back but also make her stronger. ALSO also, kali has to be here. why would they do so much with her for season 2 just for her to never return. the very last shot of her was her looking sad out of a window, it looked like she wanted to run after el. she said el was like the missing part of her and el being there made her whole. i genuinely hope 008 comes back.
@@sequinjin8332 Damn you're a smart Seokjin stan 😭👌 I love your theory it makes a lot of sense
maybe the reason the upside down looked like Hawkins in 1983 is because it was the only other time he got a glimpse into the real world. he hadn't seen Hawkins since the attempted escape when 11 pushed him through. it would make sense if he immediately modeled the upside down world after that iteration on Hawkins. present a corrupted image of a familiar place to further stress the victims maybe?
Vecma's Position when suspended resembles a clock with a lot of hands. It might be something to do with being everywhere at the same time.
It also resembles how spiders rest/hunt in the middle of their webs and Henry’s obsession with spiders!
It's incredible the amount if thought and detail that goes into projects like this. Just mind blowing.
"Season four will end on a cliffhanger, perhaps a tragedy affecting one of the main characters..." Oh how right you were
In relation to time travel I immediately noticed a reference to Dr Who of a weeping angel in season 4 I believe when Max was being chased by Vecna in the graveyard. Not sure of its relevance though.
November 6 is the day Eleven opened the gate to Upside Down.
November 5 is the day Marty time-travelled to, with the DeLorean, in Back to the future.
I feel that this is no coincidence...
Some questions we need answered before we can conclude... Did 11 create the upside down? Did 1 create the upside down? Or hear me out... Did Will create the upside down? Or perhaps it's a sign that the end was near hints time stopping there being linked to Will. I havent seen much with him but he was so important that he was taken or chased into the upside down... Something seems off with Will like there is a much much much deeper story with him like maybe he was an unnumbered child joyce is crazy enough 😜 but realistically the duffer brothers are a fan of childhood memories and one I can think of is FF7s use of numbered unnumbered being the strongest and most bad ass in the end.
If you go to season 2 and watch Kali first appear when eleven finds that group of teens . She makes the kid with spikey hair see spiders like someone familiar we all know and her powers seem to be different too making others see people from their past !! Also sounding like someone familiar lol prob not gonna be on 11 side
ua-cam.com/video/6GOTlQxmuWU/v-deo.html
When you mentioned the tragedy on one of the main characters, it might be Will. Because I saw in a short video his actor was harnessed up….
wtf really???
It could also be a pretty big hint that the upside down is stuck in time, not progressing away from 1983.
I think you’re amazing, how you pick up on all these little details we completely miss!! 🙌🏾💕🌟
Thank you so much!
Well we just watch, she analyzes.
Erica rolled the 20 that defeated Vecna in the D&D campaign...
11+1+8= 😌
Dustin Season 4 - Erica Season 5
wow this all makes sense!!!! Super interesting. Thank you for creating this video 📹
OK!!! Don't worry, there will be a season FIVE! The duffer brothers actually posted it on Facebook, so we are getting LOADS of cliffhangers
When realease the episode 5?
@@maximojaming6118 probably 2024 or late 2023
Apparently the duffer brothers already know the plot of season 5
I just remembered something in season 4 when they were stuck in the upsidedown remember when Nancy said she had a gun in her house and when they went to their house their was no gun and when they checked the date it was the date when will disappeared and she didn't have a gun at that time so I think something related to this will happen in season 5
Time travel is my favorite subject in pop culture. Can't wait to see what's coming in the next part. I cant even imagine exactly what way it might play out which is even better, like with Dark and 12 Monkeys (tv series) both epic shows to watch if you love time travel!
Duffer Brothers confirmed that When 11 escaped the Lab in the first season, she was in a short coma and lost her memory, that’s why she didn’t know how to speak at first, since the Hawkins Massacre happened in 1979 and El escaped in 1983, I assume that there was something terrible happened to her and she decided to run away. Maybe she found out that Papa was not the one who she really thought he was, maybe he turned into a monster (aka Mind Flayer) and she had to fight with him to get free. But since she lost her memory, she wouldn’t remember any of that.
Thanks a lot for this video💜💜💜💜💜 It was very interesting💜💜💜💜💜
It may also be of note to point out the comic books, in which six (a small white redhead girl) can see the future where El's ultimate powers scare the everloving crap out of her so she escapes with 3 and 9.5 when 11's mom bursts in with a gun. And then 3, 6 and 9 all die to vecna (but according to the shows IMBD page, none of them are the same character at all, six is a young African American boy).
When asked if the comic book was cannon in an interview, the Duffer Bros said "that is up to interpretation," and then they both laughed and looked at each other giggling.
So, either the original 6, 3, 9.5 (the twin of 9 who had fire powers) come back, or 8 comes back, or 8 was off finding 6, 3, and 9.5 and that's why she hadn't joined in the fight earlier...It could get really interesting.
Or like the joke from Steve about "the time travel movie where the guy tries to get with his mom" is how it ends with 11 going back in time too far, getting stuck there, and then giving birth to herself. lol.
This is just incredible!!! Thanks for pointing this all out. This Show is just amazing ❤️🙏🏻
Since the Upside Down is stuck in 1983, it’s 100% certain time travel will be at the heart of Season 5. There will be a time jump for the last story, too, likely set in 1988 or 1989. If it’s ‘89, that’s the year Back to the Future II and Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure were released.
I feel when eleven is told she needs to fly- this is also a clue about time travel.. flying through time
I think Will is gonna be the one that cuts off Vecna’s hand to kill him with it. Just a guess that’s been going around. It’s gonna take Eleven and Eight to hold off the swarm of Demi-creatures and Will is gonna cut his hand off and take Vecna out with his own hand. That would be epic!! 8, 11, and Will are the 3 heads on the red dragon. Let’s see if I’m close to being right. See ya at the final season!!!!
Amazing coverage, thank you!
Thank you!
They really do focus on the concept of time so, I can definitely see them wanting to manipulate it especially considering all the indicators throughout the series. One prediction that I have for season 5 is that somehow they will expose the fact that Henry Creel never died and that Brenner kidnapped him, exploited his power, as well as, abused him, etc.. In doing so, they could connect all the murders to Henry. This would exonerate Victor Creel but, also may be a way of clearing Eddie's name as well the Hellfire club whose members are all in danger.
There is actually a theory, that Eddie is 10 because when you look at the scene where he is rolling the dices, on his left arm there is a small end of a zero, and also he always wears a watch at the place where the tatoo should be
So DND character Kas has the same weapons and shield that Eddie has when he was being attacked. What if Eddie didn’t die but becomes Kas? Kas was Vecna right hand man. Kas eventually turns on Vecna and killing him. I like this theory more. I think 8 helps. I also think Kas/Eddie is the endgame.
I mean Henry’s speech was spot on though…
Oooooh so many things I hadn’t thought of!! Brilliant!
The strongest thing is the ending of Nancy's diary in 1983, the same time when everything begins. And the Vecna knowing and showing her all in advance could be the hint that he somehow managed to distort and warp, or stop the time, without them even knowing in the "real world". The fact that in the upsidedown world you have houses and all the man made structures, but only whitout the humans who made it, could be the hint that Henry all rady is winning, and have them trapped in the somekind "pocket alternative dimension" where all look's so pictusecd and idyllic, so he could control them and stop them to do something about everything. Or it is the opposite: Interestingly in his monologue he does mention the purgatory, so maybe El did kill him, but being his consciousness and mind is so powerful, he refused to die, and created the "upsidedown world" as his pocket dimension, by his wishes how the world should be. That would also explain the existence of man made structures, because they are in Henry's memories, but no humans, because Henry hates them, and wants the world without humans? And it would also explain why he despite being older, more experienced, and in the moment obviously more powerful then Eleven couldn't open the door before Eleven accidentally "contacted" him trough the Demagorgon, it could be the reference of summoning him, something like duh on the seance, or the demon? And knowing that he's collecting consciousness of his victims, all the creatures there could be changed persons that he collected that way, and shaped by his will and perception, and place them like figures on a chessboard so he could make contact more easy, and so free himself from his "purgatory." And we know that he's a chess player and he played chess with El in the Lab, in her memories. Woow, it's really mind blowing, and makes you think...🤯
Damn! Y'all have great observations! This is a kick!
Could the therapist be the new Billy?
If 11 goes back in time. I can see her bringing back Billy.
And Steve getting attacked by the DemiBats and him being the only one that mentioned swallowing the particles in the upside down, makes me think he’s going to get killed off next because of all the hints with the Nancy and Steve relationship.
So excited for Volume 2!!! Stay Strange y’all!!
I don't know if you are aware, (or maybe you have mentioned it in the past but I had missed), but Eleven's nosebleeds that occur whenver she is utilizing her powers and then becomes depleted thereafter, is reminiscent of Drew Barrymore's character, Charlie, in Stephen King's 1980 novel, Firestarter (1984), wherein her parents were a part of an experiment similar to what goes on at Montauk. [Great movie. Highly recommend.]
I want to see more of the other kids that were in the rainbow room or kali. We only got to see a little bit of them and never saw them again so that would be really cool
When Nancy & Steve &Co. are in the upside down, they are a few years back in time. That seems an implication that there will be time travel as well, why else would they end up back in time all of a sudden when that was never a thing before in the show
When 11 tossed 1 into the upside down, the gate healed itself fast. What if Will's trauma was being used to "create a powerful psychic connection" that helped Vecna keep the gate open and why it expanded the longer it was open. More kills, Joyce and Will had a connection between the two dimensions, etc.
I love this theory. Great videos. Subscribed
Thank you!
Im not certain, but no one else has even mentioned this that I have seen. The counselor in season 4 looks possibly like the woman Prof Clarke had over in season 1 or 2, when Dustin called him to find out how to build a sensory deprivation tank. Could be a reach, but that occurs pretty much right after Clarke makes a deal with the creepy hitman lady for funding. Maybe she works for the spy network in Hawkins....I dont think she is a pawn of Vecna but. There is definitely a reveal I think coming about her....
Very impressive video ❤ and while I am NOT a fan of time travel, I have no doubt the D-brothers will not let fans down with their excellent writing!
I'm NOT a big sci-fi fan. (If I can't happen, I'm not interested) When S.T came out, it was all the buzz, when I was told what it was about, I heard "upside-down, demogorgon, mind flare" stuff, I thought- "no thanks". But, being an 80's kid, I was so happy I gave it a chance! They have done INCREDIBLE! I love the show, HATE the super long time gaps in the awaited seasons... 😒
So, while I'm not a fan of time travel, I can say I am confident it will be awesome.... as long as they don't end up HAVING to kill all that's in the upside down, including themselves to do it.
I do think we will see Kari- (eye roll) I just didn't like her character.
With Netflix already discussing spin offs, I'm hoping 11 does not sacrifice herself, I am afraid it will be Will. He is connected to this thing. I don't think they will loose the battle either, it's a good vs evil thing, and they can't kill off the best and have spin offs worth watching right?
Another easter egg about time - Nancy and Robin went into the public library clock tower was shown and a split second later they show the girls walking into the library and on the back of robins jacket is an all seeing eye in a key hole
Damn you NAILED the "tragedy affecting one of the main characters" theory! I SERIOUSLY hope there is time travel in S5! I'm still hung up on the Upside Down being frozen on November 6, 1983!
Thank you!
One weird thing is when One is being thrown into the upside down, it is basically a barren land and monsters. But yet normally we see it in Hawkins. Well if One was thrown into from the Hawkins lab, he should arrive in Hawkins upside down, right?
There is something sinister with UD really. S5 will tell a lot.
With the hive mind, One is basically controlling all the demigorgons then. That's how eleven breaks free in the end easily. Somehow his own kin can turn against him? idk I have a feel, there is something about the shadow too.
And yes Will is definitely a horcrux, I mean if he is okay then how tf he feels him. And since one can see everything, he doesn't know Will can feel him? My money on Will sacrificing himself in the end or smthn. Because since the start, poor lad has been miserable. First he ended up in UD, then got possessed and now he has unrequited love stuff. Either he turns evil, or he dies.
These theories make expectations even more higher
2:55 that wasn’t the demogorgon. And we know that because look at his left hand, it’s bigger just like Vecna’s, also, he’s very slow and we know the demogorgon is much faster than Vecna. We also know it’s Vecna because when will is in the shed Vecna uses telekinesis to unlock the door just like el did in season 2 finale. Also, we know Henry was in the upside down before will went missing because he was waiting for el to open the gate. So that’s how we know Vecna was there from season one and knows the kids plan and everything they’re planning. Also at the very end of season 2 there’s a flash of the snow ball in the upside down and the mind flayer is looking over them showing how he’s always watching them.
I could relate it with harry potter series... As having good memories and good moments in life helps you win over the dark.. Max does the same and also in the faceoff between 11 and 001, eleven uses her good memories to win over bad... Its same wine in different bottle.
Eleven will do something with time. 100% sure of that but not sure what and when she’ll revert time back to. Perhaps when she sent 1 to the upside down and/or when she touched the demogorgan.
The details in this show are unreal 😮
I guess that would mean some people might be brought back to life or never died, if things are corrected in the past.
2:52 This is not the sound of a clock ticking, but the sound of a bicycle chain as the wheel spins ;)
It may not be pointing to time travel but the clock in creel house may be it's a hint that there is another way to go in the upside-down or may be something about Vecna is linked to that clock
You also missed in your video that the classroom scene on the blackboard it Says Grade E8 (Eleven and her pal 8). The clock also shows 8.11am
The way they’ve been potentially foreshadowing time travel for over 5 seasons yet Pretty Little Liars couldn’t even foreshadow for greater than 2 seasons… Petition for the stranger things crew to rewrite Pretty Little Liars please and thank you
Also depending on the time jump, Kali would likely be an adult now. If Linda Hamilton plays an older Kali, that could be epic
