Since Season 4 of Stranger Things, when Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower) was revealed as the architect of everything that has happened since Will (Noah Schnapp) was taken in Season 1, he has been the number one villain on the series. However, hints in Season 5, Part 1 suggest a story that's far more layered and complex, one that is explored in the Broadway play Stranger Things: The First Shadow. Based on a few key moments throughout the first four episodes, along with that insane finale, it's possible that a massive twist is coming that could make fans actually sympathize with Vecna, or rather, with Henry Creel.
