As for who may actually die in Stranger Things, Steve Harrington and Nancy Wheeler are at the top of the list.

After entering the Upside Down in Episode 7, Steve is attacked by several Demobats; though he survives the deadly situation after Nancy, Eddie, and Robin come to his aid, he still lost a lot of blood from the creatures eating away at his body. So, he's definitely on our radar for the final two episodes of Season 4 (we really, really hope he doesn't die).

When it comes to Nancy, her condition seems much worse. At the end of Episode 7, viewers learn that she is under Vecna's curse; seeing as Max is the only one of his target's to survive his attacks, things are looking really bad for Nancy. Therefore, she's high on the list of characters we have to be concerned about this season.

Season 4, Vol. 1 of Stranger Things is available now. Season 4, Vol. 2 arrives on Netflix on July 1, 2022.
