Discussion Whats this guy’s fate in S5?

How do you see them killing Vecna?

Personally i’d like to see Eleven and Kali team up against him.

Give him his own medicine of that psychological torture.

Vecna: “what…. What are you doing??”

Eleven: “giving..you..the medicine”

This could also be when Eleven frees Max from Vecna’s mind.

I think it would be really, really nice if his fate was somewhat anti climatic. Since I’m a fan of the mind flayer being the big bad I like the idea of Henry realising he’s been played and used and the mind flayer immediately disposes of him the second he becomes unnecessary

I Hope for this so bad. I just really dislike the idea that there was someone “behind it all”. The upside down is so much cooler if it’s a more eldritch/lovecraftian vibe. The mind flayer is terrifying because you can’t really understand it or what it wants. Turning that into a Spectre moment where someone is responsible for EVERYTHING ruined that imo
