Film Theory: Stranger Things - IS ELEVEN THE MONSTER? (Stranger Things Season 2 Prediction) - Summary

Summary

The video discusses a fan theory that Eleven (El) and the Demogorgon from the Netflix series Stranger Things are the same entity, with the Demogorgon being the Upside Down version of El. The theory is supported by various clues and parallels throughout the series, including the theme of duality, the monster's powers and behavior, and the show's use of symbolism and foreshadowing. The video also references the season 2 trailer, which appears to show El unlocking a door in a similar way to the Demogorgon, further supporting the theory. The video concludes that the connection between El and the Demogorgon has huge implications for the story and suggests that El may be the monster or that the Demogorgon may not be dead after all.
