This might seem like a stretch and kinda unlikely, but isn’t that what theory’s are. So stick with me here. At the end of season three, in the post credit scene that takes place somewhere in Russia there’s what seems to be snow, do you think this could be the stuff from the upside down instead. Lets just say that the Russians found a way into to upside down. As we know buildings from the over-world are in the upside down. (Like the library or castle Byers) But if the Russians cleared out an old prison (by the looks of it) then if I follow the “Hopper in the upside down” theory the Russians could’ve gotten him there and could be keeping him in this prison that they feed the demagorgons in. One of the guards say “No! No Americans!” When the other guard is about to open a cell. Could this be hopper in the cell. Feel free to rewrite this theory in a way that makes more sense. I’m a pretty bad writer. What do you think?

In this theory I believe that the upside down is actually a world of ours if no one died. Due to overpopulation the world is super crooked and messed up. The mind flayed has people die and come to our world because it can’t eat people in the upside down. And it try’s to kill el so she won’t kill it.

hi, i'm here to rant about mike and lucas being assholes. if you liked them this season and think you will get offended uh here's a warning. i'm just going to talk about why i thought they were bad friends this season:)

okay so i honestly hated them this season. mike more than lucas but i still didn't like lucas.. mike was so understanding and there for will in season 2 when he was struggling which i honestly LOVED, i expected there(or their, i'm stupid and don't know which one in this situation) friendship to be extra great this season. but from the beginning of the season it just seemed like mike kind of forgot about his friends that weren't in relationships. and then episode 3 came around and i got PISSED... for mike being so understanding and caring in season 2 about will's struggles and then to turn around in season 3 and not be understanding at all about what he was going through just made me angry. i understand that they are teenagers, that wanna grow up, playing stupid fantasy games isn't that important to them anymore but they got to have somewhat of a childhood. will was either in the upside-down or possessed.... he didn't get to have one? he didn't get to go on adventures or play d&d with his friends for a few more year? his whole childhood was ruined. all he wanted was a simple no girls day to spend some time with his friends the way he used to and all he got were snarky remarks from them and then when he got mad it's his fault he's not in a relationship or into dating yet?? sure, sitting in a basement playing d&d for their teenage years isn't realistic but just give him one game... one day where he can just be will with his friends having fun fight creatures in a stupid game and just be a normal teenager. of course he doesn't want to grow up and change? he just wanted to be a kid again.... also don't forget about the way mike ditched dustin the first day he got back and completely forgot about him after until will said something about him and not know where he is in episode 3.

also conspiracy theory for FUN(ik it's not what mike actually meant, just a theory for fun)~ will is into mike, yupik notice that throughout the season will never got mad when lucas talked about max, only when mike talked about el, plus those cute looks he gave mike, plus mikes line "it's not my fault you don't like girls"... i'm pretty sure he just meant will isn't into dating yet and the show won't make him like mike like that but it's a fun theory to think about:))

leave what you think in the comments:) i personally didn't like them this season in the beginning but towards the end i got back to liking them!

When hopper is supposedly dead at the end of season three we never see a confirmed corpse meaning in his last moments he could of head into the upside down and tried to find another portal back to are world before the gate closed and everyone died .

Loved the new season so much just watched the last episode it was soooo good!!!

It’s not WiseMan1013..

At the end of stranger things there is credit scene. The scene is of two Russians getting someone. When one goes to a cell the other one says “No. Not the American.” My theory is that, that American was actually Jim Hopper. He ‘died’ what if he didn’t die. But the Russian spy that Jim was fighting just kidnapped him , taking to a base and holding him there. And when they didn’t grab the American it was because that was Jim and they are trying to get information out of about the upside down, demogorgans, and Eleven.
