We Need to Talk About Will

In the final season of Stranger Things, Will Byers publicly acknowledges he is gay. The show hinted at this throughout its run—even in the first episode, his mother mentioned his father once used a homophobic slur to describe him, and later, a disagreement with his friend Mike touched on Will’s lack of interest in girls. However, Will’s journey with his feelings, particularly his romantic feelings for Mike, became a central part of his story in the show’s last two seasons.

The strange, swirling energy is actually exotic matter, and it’s what’s keeping the barrier between worlds stable. Steve correctly wonders if someone wants the barrier to fall so they can get to Vecna and Holly, but the answer is no. Vecna didn’t create the barrier, so neither he nor Holly are on the other side. The barrier isn’t a wall at all – it’s the edge of a wormhole, and the Upside Down is that wormhole. Think of a wormhole as a tunnel or a bridge connecting our world (Hawkins) to another. If that bridge collapses, both worlds will be destroyed, and everything in them. A bullet has already started the collapse. What’s on the other side of the barrier? According to Dustin, “Death.” Basically, this season of Stranger Things requires a degree in theoretical physics to fully understand what’s going on.
