Stranger Things has dropped the trailer for the final episode of Season 5, and there are more questions than ever before. Fans have been closely exploring every frame, searching for clues that might reveal how the show will end. And the trailer may have dropped one crucial hint about a new character that could be a game-changer in the ending of the show.

This new character in question is Patty Newby, who has already been introduced in Stranger Things: The First Shadow. This play is a prequel to the main series, and it explores Henry Creel’s past and the younger versions of Joyce, Jim, and Bob. Moreover, this play, which involved Patty Newby, is hinted to be included in season 5, which has left fans in a frenzy.

Written by Kate Trefry, this is a play where Joyce is shown organizing a high school play titled Dark of the Moon. This play appears to be subtly referenced in the Season 5 trailer. The scene of the play is partially hidden behind Eleven, Kali, and Max.

But even this brief glimpse has been enough to spark intense speculation and intrigue among fans.

For those who are not aware, the character, Patty Newby, is an adoptive sister to Bob Newby, who died in the second season of Stranger Things. She is also shown as the love interest of Henry Creel (Vecna) and one of the few people who is cared for by Vecna. Patty Newby also plays in the High school play directed by Joyce.

A glimpse of that play in season 5 of Stranger Things hints that the character Patty Newby could be returning in the show. And this explains the fans’ excitement over the show. 

The play also shows that Henry, on his eighth birthday, wanders into a mysterious cave in Nevada and comes out with no memory of what happened inside. This is the cave suggested to be involved in the Philadelphia Experiment, a World War II project, and also where Henry first comes into contact with the Mind Flayer. 

This cave is already shown in season 5, as the one that is feared by Vecna. While season 5 is getting backlash for several reasons, fans are more excited about the potential of Patty Newby's entry in the show.

So, whether Patty Newby appears in the final episode of Stranger Things or not remains to be seen. In any case, the trailer looks promising and will reveal most of the secrets.
