Who Is Going To Die In Stranger Things Season 5?
With the wrap of the fourth season, we saw the death of some important characters like Eddie, the metalhead, played by Joseph Quinn, or Dr. Brenner, for that matter. But is that it? Of course not!
Confirmed by the Duffer Brothers, we now know that the fifth season is going to be the last season. The last chapter means more deaths. Season 4 concluded with plenty of cliff-hangers, with so many important characters leaving the show. There are chances that we might witness some major heartbreaks.
According to Hawke, it’s the last season, so people are probably going to die. But what she wants for her character is, ‘’to die with honor”, and get her hero’s moment. She said in an interview with Rolling Stone.
Maya Hawke portrays the character of Robin Buckley and was introduced in the third season of the show. She is shown as the co-worker and best friend of Steve Harrington, played by Joe Keery.
Though there is a high probability of Robin’s death, will she really die! We’ll have to wait for the release of season 5 to find out.
Apart From Robin, Who Else Seems More Likely To Die?

Dustin or Lucas! yeah! as heart-breaking as it may seem, but Stranger Things will certainly need to kill at least one important character who has been a part of the show since season 1. Therefore, one of the two characters is more likely to die in season 5.
Also, Steve Harrington has more probability of death compared to other characters of Stranger Things. He might not have the central role but he definitely is a fan favorite. He is also one of the few characters who has been there from season 1. Therefore, he might also end up dying in the fifth season.
Murray Bauman, who does not seem to have any important function in the story anymore may also end up dead. He’s more like a comic relief character. Since he has always proved to be willing to sacrifice himself to save others, the makers might give him a heroic ending.
What About Eleven Or Will Byers! Will They Both Survive!

To give the series a major plot twist, the makers may actually kill one of the two central characters! But who knows! We can only hope for our favorite ones to stay there till the very end.
We may not be sure about these characters, but we can be sure about one thing. The antagonists!
In every story, the monsters, beasts or shadows are always defeated. Similarly, in this mega hit series, Vecna, the shadow is also very likely to die. Yes, it may give some mortal wounds to any major characters, but it will itself have a very terrific end.
