Max’s Fate At The End Of Stranger Things Season 4 Confirmed By Duffers

The big question at the end of Stranger Things season 4 is “is Max alive in Stranger Things?” Though seemingly left in a troubled state, the Duffer brothers have a soothing update for Max’s (Sadie Sink) fate at the end of the season. The fourth season of the Netflix series marked a pivotal and emotional arc for Max. It saw her deal with the fallout of the events of season 3. Her abusive stepbrother Billy (Dacre Montgomery) came back from being possessed and sacrificed himself to save Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) from the Mind Flayer at the Starcourt Mall, leaving Max with a heavy dose of guilt. Season 4 saw Max struggle to come to terms with Billy’s death and suffering from PTSD, only to eventually find herself the target of the evil Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower) as he goes on his terrifying murder spree around Hawkins.
