Stranger Things fans are convinced they’ve spotted season four villain Vecna in a much earlier episode.
The Netflix series dropped its penultimate batch of episodes at the end of last month, with a terrifying new villain from the Upside Down on hand to terrorise the Hawkins teens.
Portrayed by Harry Potter star Jamie Campbell Bower, the monster has helped aid what fans have described as the ‘most scary season’ of Stranger Things yet.
With Vecna’s emergence, another theory has also been suggested by some eagle-eyed viewers.
They have claimed the terrifying monster was actually first featured on Stranger Things back in its very first season.
The first season of Stranger Things saw Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) abducted and taken to a parallel universe known as the Upside Down.
While it had generally been assumed by fans that Will had been taken to the Upside Down by a Demogorgon, a new theory has emerged in the wake of Vecna’s season four introduction.
Indeed, some Stranger Things fans are now suggesting that Vecna first appeared in season one and it was Vecna who was responsible for transporting Will to the Upside Down.
Posting to TikTok, fans made their case that a Demogogon wouldn’t have been capable of opening the door between the real world and the Upside Down.
They have hence theorised that Vecna had to be responsible, with one fan even claiming to have seen Vecna while watching the clip of Will’s season one abduction again.
One Stranger Things fan wrote: “Demogorgons do not have powers like Vecna.
“They can’t open a door like that.”
Another commented: “Since when could a demogorgon teleport through behind will in the shed, it means it was Vecna.”
Meanwhile, a third said: “Vecna took Will. Watch the clip again.”
A fourth concluded: “TBF this makes sense because a demorgogon can’t use telekinesis I don’t think and he moved the door chain with its mind [sic].”
Stranger Things season 4a is available to stream on Netflix.
