According to this theory, she will be the one who delivers Vecna to death, betraying him to Eleven and her friends. This time, though, it will be Judas who saves the world.

Stranger Things season 5 solves a mystery about Will and Hawkins’ tunnels, confirming a theory that existed since the show’s second season.

Stranger Things has been hinting at this reveal throughout Season 5. Look no further than its references to A Wrinkle in Time, which features wormhole-like tesseracts. Or how about Mr. Clarke fully teaching a class on Einstein-Rosen Bridges, aka wormholes?
