The fourth season of Stranger Things takes viewers on the show’s most monumental adventure to date, both literally and metaphorically. At the beginning of the season, there were seven episodes, and each one lasted at least seventy minutes and took place in a variety of realms and locales across many continents.
The series’ conclusion, which included two episodes that clocked in at over four hours, was a really momentous occasion. In spite of the fact that a number of viewers’ inquiries were satisfactorily resolved, there was, as has been the case throughout the entirety of the series, room for interpretation and suggestions as to what the future could hold.

Stranger Things Season 4 Ending Explained
Stranger Things season 4 concludes with two episodes dedicated to the defeat of Vecna. The characters from all across the world unite in the last struggle to defeat the enemy. How did we arrive at this point?
Hopper, Joyce, and Murray have returned to Russia to aid in the Demogorgon’s breakout from captivity. After discovering the guards have been doing experiments on these animals, they venture deeper into the camp, where they discover the creatures have been placed on a dissecting table, others are contained in glass tubes, and there are floating Upside Down particles. Uri’s hideout is the only place where our group, along with Enzo, can hide out as they figure out a method to flee the nation.
A decrepit helicopter that appears to be their only hope appears to be malfunctioning, but they don’t know why. After Hopper makes a phone call to Hawkins, he realizes how much danger their children are in and they devise a new strategy. According to Joyce, the creature stalking Hawkins should be weakened if they kill the Demogorgans and the particles. In theory, this will allow time for the youngsters to carry out their plans.
Ezra reveals to Eleven in Nevada that she was responsible for throwing Henry into the Upside Down, and therefore creating Vecna. She regains her powers and picks up NINA with her thoughts after learning this new information. We can once again rely on El’s services. Her primary interest is the well-being of her close buddies.
Eleven Finally Has Her Powers Back
It would appear so. Eleven is now able to move big items, blow up helicopters, and infiltrate people’s thoughts thanks to the Nina Project. In the final two episodes, she can confront Vecna as he chases Max (Sadie Sink) through her memories, and that last talent comes in handy.
As a convenient workaround, her long-distance superpowers allow her and her companions to communicate with each other despite their vast distance from Indiana. The California crew and the Hawkins group may easily be joined in this manner, but it leaves characters such as Mike, Will, and Jonathan with nothing to do but offer assistance.
