In an interview with The Wrap, Millie Bobby Brown admitted she wants the series to go full Game of Thrones and start killing off several main characters. In response, the Duffer Brothers spoke with Variety and teased that a death or two is on the way.

"I don’t really want to say, but I would be concerned about the characters going into Volume 2, for sure," Ross told the outlet. "I hope that that is sort of the sense, because it is a darker season and the kids are no longer kids. So everybody is in danger. And there’s sort of an ominous feeling that things might not go well. Now, whether they do or not, you’ll have to watch."

That being said, it seems highly unlikely that Mike will die in Stranger Things.

Sure, he can be quite annoying and is a pretty awful friend sometimes, but his death just wouldn't make sense. Since Mike barely has a significant storyline or character arc, killing him off would be completely useless. Also, we feel that the series can't end with a member its core four — Mike, Lucas, Dustin, and Will — dead (it would most definitely enrage the superfans!)
