Eddie's sacrifice was the best death in the history of Stranger Things, but this could be a bad thing for Stranger Things season 5, its final outing.
While Eddie Munson’s tragic self-sacrifice in the season 4 finale couldn’t have been more perfect, this creates a real problem for Stranger Things season 5. The way that Stranger Things handles the subject of death has changed considerably across the show’s four seasons. In Stranger Things season 1, death came with surprising swiftness and brutality to sweet, undeserving supporting characters like Barb and Benny.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY This season saw the arrival of some of the scariest moments in Stranger Things, with Bob’s death in particular standing out as a tragic, gruesome surprise. Stranger Things season 3 changed tack again, killing off swathes of Hawkins residents without much fanfare and massively increasing the show’s body count.
Eddie's Death Will Be Hard To Beat In Stranger Things 5 Major Stranger Things deaths have gradually grown in scale and impact, beginning with the barely-established Barb’s sudden death, graduating to the sweet minor character Bob’s demise, and then leading to Billy’s redemptive last stand. While the Stranger Things season 4 finale made some mistakes, one choice that the episode got entirely right was Eddie’s death.
Eddie’s entire arc was predicated on the idea that he is an archetypical outsider. Throughout season 4, Eddie was a combination of the troubled kid from the wrong side of the tracks and the passionate nerd stock characters seen in countless teen movies. This mixture may seem like it wouldn’t work, but thanks to the satanic panic of the ‘80s, it made sense that the Dungeons and Dragons-obsessed dork was also a feared, misunderstood loner.
Killing Supporting Characters Won't Work For Stranger Things' Ending The biggest problem that Stranger Things season 5 faces is that the show can’t simply create another memorable supporting star for the show to kill off. Season 1 had time to establish Barb , season 2 set up Joyce and Bob, and seasons 2 and 3 made Billy a complicated anti-villain before his eventual redemption.
