The D&D Theory
That Has
Stranger Things
Fans Looking At
Season 4 Episode1
By ALEXANDER BILLET
Fans of "Stranger Things" are looking for clues as to what these final episodes of Season 4 have in store. There's one theory in particular that fans are dissecting, and it has to do with Dungeons & Dragons.
In Season 4, Episode 1, Dustin, Mike, Erica, and the rest of the Club faced Eddie's long-running Dungeons & Dragons campaign, which features Vecna as an antagonist. Commenters of the r/StrangerThings subreddit have thoughts, as one user wrote, "This made me think, what if this campaign is foreshadowing what's to come in the last episodes?"
"Pretty sure Dustin rolling an 11 and it being a miss is the foreshadowing of something bad happening," wrote u/Rooks4567, suggesting that El won't ultimately be able to defeat Vecna. If the D&D campaign was actually foreshadowing future events, then the gang might be in for some heartbreaking losses.
