5 assumptions most fans are making about Stranger Things 4

Eleven will get her powers back

Everyone believes Hopper will be back in Stranger Things 4, and I’d guess all those fans also believe Eleven gets her powers back in the new season.

At the end of season 3, Eleven lost her powers right before the final battle with the Mind Flayer. By the end of the season, Eleven still doesn’t have her powers, and we don’t know why she lost her powers in the first place.

She was also bitten by the monster, and we don’t know if that could be causing her power outage or if it’s something else. She used a tremendous amount of energy at the end of the season to stop the monster and go into the void. It’s possible she’s just drained, but I’m not so sure.

Knowing how Eleven lost her powers will help us understand how she can get them back. Some believe it was simply done to make the final battle better and so Eleven wouldn’t know Hopper is still alive. I’m sure it was more than that, and we’ll find out more in the new season. It’d be too easy for the Duffers and the writers to cause Eleven to lose her powers simply to push the story forward.

I think there’s a good reason why Eleven lost her powers, and we’ll probably find out in season 4. I also believe, like everyone else, Eleven will get those powers back at some point.

Will it happen?

 Yes, duh. Eleven and her powers are the only chance humans have against these monsters.
