Technically, the notion that Vecna has been controlled by the Mind Flayer was first presented in the Broadway play Stranger Things: The First Shadow. In the theatrical exploration of the show, it is suggested that the Mind Flayer gave Henry Creel (played by Jamie Campbell Bower) his powers, which in turn led him to become Vecna. So if you\u2019ve seen the play, you\u2019d have at least a baseline knowledge of that idea \u2014 but most fans have not and were otherwise dark about the connection until now.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Despite Hot Ones editing the video pretty quickly, fans latched onto the spoilers and grabbed clips of the video before it was removed, which are now all over social media and Reddit. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-theme=\"light\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\" lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">said will built the tunnels and that vecna is run by the mindflayer\u2026 these are absolutely spoilers that accidentally slipped through \ud83d\ude2d https:\/\/t.co\/SmbfBxEzbZ <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/PvpPDcchYx\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/PvpPDcchYx<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 \ud83d\udc30 (@c_tviz) <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/c_tviz\/status\/1995938369726283954?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">December 2, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">\u201cThey Barbara Streisand-ed the Hot Ones video,\u201d one fan wrote on the Stranger Things subreddit, to which another user replied, \u201cLol, that\u2019s sorta funny considering they used a Barbara Streisand song about &#8216;memories&#8217; in the show.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">\u201cTHEY CUT IT OUT I CAN&#8217;T BREATHE,\u201d another person wrote on Twitter\/X, while another fan remarked about the faces Wolfhard and McLaughlin make during the interview, suggesting that they realized Schnapp was airing out spoilers. \u201cI didn&#8217;t notice Finn and Caleb&#8217;s faces, omg u might be right,\u201d they wrote in response to a fan who shared the clip. \u201c\u200b\u200bwow, that\u2019s not subtle at all\u2026\u201d one tweet read. \u201csomeone\u2019s getting the wrath of the internet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"article-slideshow\"><button type=\"button\" style=\"display:none\" class=\"jsx-2228525885\"\/><\/p>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-view-trigger\">\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-preview\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 slideshow-preview\">\n<h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-1085005187\" data-cy=\"slideshow-preview-title\">Who Will Die In Stranger Things Season 5?<\/h3>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-images-container\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 images-container\"><button type=\"button\" data-cy=\"hero-image\" aria-label=\"Open Slideshow\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 hero-image\"><img alt=\"After nearly a decade and four blockbuster seasons, as well as a Broadway play, the Netflix hit series Stranger Things is closing the book on the Upside Down with Season 5.

The final episode of the series will drop both on the streamer and in theaters nationwide on New Year\u2019s Eve.<\/p>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\"><strong>Stranger Things Season 5 release dates:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul class=\"list jsx-4224303756\" data-cy=\"list\">\n<li>VOL 1 &#8211; November 26, 5pm PT<\/li>\n<li>VOL 2 &#8211; Christmas, 5pm PT<\/li>\n<li>THE FINALE &#8211; New Year\u2019s Eve, 5pm PT<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">We\u2019ve got plenty more on Stranger Things, including <u>Ross Duffer\u2019s call to arms for fans to turn off \u201cgarbage\u201d TV settings before watching Season 5<\/u>.
