New glimpses from the set of Stranger Things season 5 points out the saddening fate of beloved character Eddie Munson.

&#8216;Stranger Things’s&#8217; Dusty Bun Recreates the Famous Eddie Munson Gest but Dashes Hopes of Fans Awaiting His Return Followed by Argyle Loss

Stranger Things [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/]season 4
introduced several new characters. Some of them instantly became fan-favorite
and Argyle was among them. Sadly, Eduardo Franco, who played this eccentric
character, revealed in an interview that he will not return to season 5. The
actor did not get a call from the creators, so he believed it was the end of his
role. However, this seems to not be the only hit fans would get during the fifth
and final season as they might also lose Eddie Munson forever too.

New pictures for the set showed the beloved Dusty recreating Eddie Munson’s
famous gesture. In the sneak peek, Gaten Matarazzo imitated the Metalhead by
sticking out his tongue and forming antlers over his head. He also wore his
Hellfire Club tee and a very Munson-inspired hairstyle. More pictures shared on
social media revealed the devastating details of the filming location and left
no room for the return of the beloved character.

A pair of snaps shared on X (formerly Twitter) showed Matarazzo standing beside
Eddie Munson’s gravestone. In season 4, this character played by Joseph Quinn
showed a remarkable turn of bravery and sacrificed his life in Upside Down to
save Dustin. However, fans who loved him refused to say goodbye to him. Some
created theories of his revival as a supernatural entity, while others wished he
did not die in the alternative dimension.

show. Now fans are mourning the loss of Eddie Munson, witnessing his name
inscribed on the tomb.

Fans’ love for the character of the horror drama has always been evident. The
way they flock to the internet to showcase their love is remarkable. However,
these were just some sneak peek and only creators know what these moments mean
in the storyline. So only time will tell where the Hellfire Club members will go
after the departure of its leader or if there is still hope.
