Stranger Things aficionados are buzzing with theories about the enigma wrapped in one of season five’s veiled titles, following leaks that hit the internet earlier this year.

Netflix set tongues wagging on Wednesday, November 6, by dropping a teaser trailer that unveiled the names of the upcoming final eight episodes.

The conspicuous absence of a name from the second episode title has fans in a frenzy, trying to deduce which character might fall prey to the sinister Upside Down next.

But those who have been diligently hunting for Stranger Things hints since the fourth season’s 2022 release might have already pieced together the puzzle months in advance, reports the Mirror.

A popular theory among several devotees is that Holly Wheeler (played by twins Anniston and Tinsley Price), Mike Wheeler’s (Finn Wolfhard) little sister, is the individual in question.

With expectations for Holly to play a bigger part in the new season, Nell Fisher is slated to take over the role.

The consensus among viewers is so strong that one die-hard fan labeled the obscured title as “kinda silly” on a recent Reddit thread.

They pointed out, “It’s pretty obvious based on the BtS content already released,” and scoffed at the attempt to conceal it, saying, “I find it kinda laughable that they blurred it in the first place.”

Fans are buzzing with theories about the upcoming season of Stranger Things, with one fan saying: “I love how they keep pretending like we haven’t figured out yet that Holly is the one who disappears (Who knows though, maybe they will pull an insane curveball on us).”

Another chimed in with their own prediction: “I love how they keep making a mystery out of Episode 2 when we’re already pretty much certain it’s gonna be Holly (or possibly Mrs. Wheeler).”

A third fan dropped what could be a major spoiler, revealing: “It’s 100% Holly Wheeler. There’s a set photo of Jamie Campbell Bower in a trench coat talking to Holly.”

The speculation continued as another fan exclaimed: “So the leaked titles were true! Episode 2 has to be The Vanishing of Holly Wheeler.”

One more fan expressed their excitement for the show’s narrative symmetry: “I love that 1×08 was The Upside Down and now 5×08 will be The Rightside Up. So excited for this season!”

Leaked set photos have shown Jamie Campbell Bower, who plays Henry Creel aka Vecna, decked out in a brown suit and filming scenes with the new actress playing Holly, Fisher.

The consensus among fans seems to be that Vecna will target Holly next, but with the fifth and final season of Stranger Things on the horizon, viewers can expect a rollercoaster of surprises.

Stranger Things season 5 will be released in 2025 on Netflix.
