Stranger Things creators Ross and Matt Duffer responded to the most disheartening theories about the show in the best way possible.

Duffer Brothers Shot Down the Biggest &#8216;Stranger Things&#8217; Theory and We Are Glad They Did

Stranger Things [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/] has always been
a show about hope in the face of darkness. But with the threat of Vecna looming
large, fans are wondering what the future holds for Hawkins and its residents.
In the past months, fans have created several theories predicting the
culmination of the fifth and final season. Though this constant buzz of
speculation keeps the excitement simmering, there is one theory that went too
far.

Duffer Brothers, however, did not waste time shutting down this theory with
their hopeful statement.


DUFFER BROTHERS AFFIRMS VIEWERS NOT TO FEAR FOR THE SHOW’S ENDING 

Stranger Things has come a long way from Mike Wheeler’s basement where he and
his friends played Dungeons and Dragons. Seeing this depiction, some fans
speculated if all the events of the series were just a game and none of it was
real. Speaking to Metro UK, the Duffer Brothers ruled out this theory at the
premiere of their stage play, The First Shadow. Matt Duffer laughed at these
rumors and joked, “‘That is correct. That is the ending…. No.’”



His brother Ross joined in and explained that the show might feel like a dream
to the audiences. But he assured that was not how the horror drama would end.
“‘We’ve known where we’ve been going for a while. And we feel comfortable with
it; hopefully, it satisfies everyone. We’ll see,'” he added. Despite affirming
fans, they can rely on them for the conclusion of season 5. They have dropped
cryptic hints and ominous teasers, fueling speculation and anxiety.

Last month, Ross Duffer dropped a massive hint about Max in season 5 through
Funko pops, which left fans restless.


ROSS DUFFER TEASED THE FUTURE OF MAX IN STRANGER THINGS SEASON 5 

The Stranger Things team has been working hard to prepare for the fifth and
final season. Though they have kept the plotlines under wraps, co-creator of the
show, Ross Duffer, dropped a hint on Instagram. The story showed creators
plotting out a shot using the Funko pops of the main characters. The video
showed Robin Buckley, Nancy Wheeler, Joyce Byers, Eleven, and Will Byers
grouped. However, they left Max lying with her face down.

Fans instantly took notice of this move by the creators
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-fans-grow-worried-for-this-major-character-as-stranger-things-creators-complete-shortlisting-for-first-two-episodes-of-the-finale/]
and worried for her safety in the finale. Season 4 left several major plotlines
dangling, like the lingering threat of Vecna, and the Upside Down’s true nature.
Thus, it’s no wonder all these unanswered questions have fans perched on the
edge of their seats, leaving them to imagine the worst of everything.
