Set Photos See Vecna In Human Form Meeting Holly Wheeler
New leaked photos from the set ofStranger Thingsseason 5 show a shocking and unexpected encounter between Holly Wheeler and Vecna, though in his human form.
In the final episode ofStranger Thingsseason 4, Nancy, Steve, and Robin arrived at Creel House in the Upside Down to kill Vecna with homemade bombs, but that wasn’t enough to destroy him. Vecna survived, but his whereabouts and next moves are unknown. Now,new leaked photos from the set ofStranger Thingsseason 5show a shocking and unexpected encounter between Holly Wheeler, Mike and Nancy’s youngest sister, and Vecna, though in his human form rather than his monstrous appearance.
Holly might be Vecna’s next target, which fits the rumored title for season 5’s second episode, “The Vanishing of [SPOILER] Wheeler”.
Vecna showing up to Holly in his human form hints at Holly meeting him in a “dream”, which is Vecna’s preferred way of getting to his victims. A meeting like this makes sense in terms ofStranger Things’ influences, as it is reminiscent of how Freddy Krueger terrorized his victims. Holly, then, might be Vecna’s next target, which fits the rumored title for season 5’s second episode, “The Vanishing of [SPOILER] Wheeler”.Vecna choosing Holly also fits with the visions Nancy hadunder Vecna’s control inStranger Thingsseason 4, in which she saw her family dead.
Some of the most populartheories forStranger Thingsseason 5suggestMike will be Vecna’s next targetas he has gotten in his way since season 1, and Vecna knows how important he is to Eleven and the rest. However, taking Holly Wheeler would be a lot more shocking, dark, and potentially tragic as she’s way younger (approximately 7-8 years old) and has done nothing to mess with Vecna or the Upside Down, and would destabilize the Wheelers and the rest of Hawkins.
