During his introduction in Stranger Things Season 4, Vecna mentally kidnapped his victims by penetrating their minds using their insecurities or past traumas against them.
However, going into Season 5, the Hawkins crew may have the upper hand on the villain due to their extensive knowledge when it comes to Vecna’s human origin story and his incredibly strong connection to Eleven.
Many Stranger Things fans are excited to get back into the fictional ring with Vecna, but a small handful are a bit salty that the show didn’t continue diving into the backstory of the show’s first villain’s as one fan wrote on Reddit, “I really wish the Mind Flayer was the big bad instead of Vecna…”
While the Hawkins gang may think they only have to face off against Vecna during their last outing for the series, there’s a chance the show’s first big bad may make an appearance because it stems from the same Upside Down where Vecna gets his powers.
