Stranger Things Fixed Its Worst Villain Mistake 😤 | Stranger Things Season 5 😭

#superman #dc #marvel #marvelstudios #spiderman #hollywood #disneyplus #dcu #mcu #spidermanbrandnewday #netflix #strangerthings The Stranger Things finale just fixed its biggest villain mistake. Season 4 revealed that Vecna was behind every Upside Down attack, which made the Mind Flayer feel weak — like it was just a puppet. But the finale flips that completely. In the final episode, Vecna admits the truth: the Mind Flayer wasn’t controlled by him. The Mind Flayer reached out first — calling to Henry Creel when he was a child. Vecna chose to merge with it. That means the Mind Flayer was always a thinking, powerful entity — not a slave. Season 5 proves this by giving the Mind Flayer its most terrifying physical form ever, acting as Vecna’s base while they fight together as one being. Eleven battles Vecna from inside the Mind Flayer, while the rest of the group fights the massive creature itself — confirming they share control. The finale doesn’t replace the Mind Flayer. It restores it.
