This situation contain minor looter for Netflix’sStranger ThingsSeason 1 .
The first season of Netflix ’s sci - fi seriesStranger Thingsleft us withmany questions . Why did Eleven vanish ? Are there more ogre obliterate out in the Upside Down dimension ? Is Barb coming back ? Luckily , the creators , the mysterious - sounding Duffer Brothers , were exhaust from whatever underground sand trap Netflix was keep them in to provide some answers .
In anew interview withVariety , the brothers address candidly about the preparation of the show ’s mythology and flirt possibility of what season two could hold . While the show has yet to be officially renew for a 2d time of year – come on Netflix , evenLilyhammergot multiple seasons – the acclaim , sports fan excitation , and wild speculation skirt the show propose that another season is inevitable . Thankfully , it sound like they have a design .

" Even with the Upside Down , we have a 30 - page document that is pretty intricate in footing of what it all means , and where this devil actually derive from , and why are n’t there more monsters " say Ross Duffer in the interview . " We have all this stuff that we just did n’t have clip for , or we did n’t feel like we require to get into in season one , because of the principal tension of Will . "
The story of Will is at the heart of time of year one , but as fans know , his journey was n’t neatly resolved . The ending of Season 1 evoke that the once - missing boy carries some part of the Upside Down humanity with him – or perhaps it was a part of him all along ?
" Will ’s been there for an entire calendar week , and it ’s had some kind of core on him , both emotionally and perhaps physically , " says Ross Duffer . " The theme is he ’s escaped this nightmare place , but has he really ? That ’s a place we want to go and potentially explore in season two . What result does living in there for a hebdomad have on him ? And what has been done to him ? It ’s not in force , obviously . "
That ’s good to experience – but what about the show ’s clear-cut lover favorite , the deadly Eleven ?
" manifestly something happened to her when she destroyed and kill that monster and we do n’t cognize what she went , " say Matt Duffer . " Hopper is left with this guilt because he sell her out . We want to will it sort of deep precisely what he knows … Have there been sightings in the woods or is he hoping she ’s out there or has he already made tangency with her ? We do n’t answer any of that , but we wish the idea of potentially putting her and Hopper together . "
An audience withIGNsuggests that a second time of year would preserve on with the Season 1 storey , versus anAmerican Horror StoryorTrue Detective - style anthology serial , as many speculated . " The hope is that it feels satisfying but that we left way and that if the great unwashed respond to it we can go back into this universe , " Matt Duffer explains . " But if we do get to go back , it ’s not a second time of year as much as a sequel . "
That does n’t intend the next season will necessarily be a re - hash of all Stephen King and Steven Spielberg tropes – or " really dark Amblin " as the comrade put it in the interview – of Season 1 . After all , there are plenty of other'80s movies and TV showsto mine for maximum nostalgia . Our only request : check that the show still has Toto songs !
