There is question of how Stranger Things finale can top the death of Eddie Munson after his iconic death scene in season four.

How Eddie Munson&#8217;s Death Has Set a Higher Bar for the &#8216;Stranger Things&#8217; Finale

While Stranger Things [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/] is one of
the best series of the current time, the show is competing with itself with
every season. The fourth season left everyone on an emotional rollercoaster of
excitement and sadness, and with more questions about what’s ahead. In the midst
of all this storm was Eddie Munsons’ amazingly haunting death.



When such a well-built character passes away, it leads to two things: more
investment in watching the finale and big expectations after the high bar that
the beautifully executed death has set.


DID STRANGER THINGS MAKE A MISTAKE BY KILLING OFF EDDIE IN SEASON 4?

Killing off teens in scary ways is one of the guilty thrills that Stranger
Things offers. Eddie Munson’s death was perhaps the bravest one that left
everyone shaken. With the fifth season being the finale, we can expect a few
more deaths of both sides, especially among the main characters. But the
challenge for the show makers now, as per Screenrant’s Cathal Gunning
[https://screenrant.com/stranger-things-5-eddie-death-scale-problem/], is to
somehow top Munson’s death by picking on a primary character and somehow giving
them an end as legendary as Munson, if not more.



The guitar hero entered the show at the beginning of the fourth season and saw a
tragic death by the end of the season. But within that time, we went from seeing
him as a typical retro punk to a character with layers of stories and internal
conflicts. Despite the negative impression of fellow characters, he died
fighting a battle for righteous reasons.

With the finale being far from its release, there are speculations
[https://netflixjunkie.com/duffer-brothers-make-big-revelations-about-stranger-things-season-5-episodes-and-storyline/]
about which character could die. But then there are some who have higher
probabilities than others.


MAIN CHARACTERS THAT COULD DIE IN THE SEASON FINALE OF THE NETFLIX SERIES

Just like Munson, we saw a major turn of view toward Steve Harrington after his
character development. But now that he is in the good books, the finale could be
a good time to break hearts by eliminating the character.

On the other hand, Eleven whose sole purpose since her exit has been fighting
the lab could also see a heroic end. The ultimate war between her and Vecna is
inescapable, with the death of the antagonist becoming the series’ happy ending.
