‘Stranger Things 3’: 7 Questions That Should Be Answered In The Next Series

Yup, we're already getting impatient.

We know, we know, ‘Stranger Things 2’ is only a week old but the world spins quickly and before you know it, we’ll be midway through 2018, with more all-new episodes of the Netflix show about to drop.

In the past week, we’ve watched (and rewatched) all of the latest installments which means there’s only one thing left to do. Yup, it’s time to start thinking about what might happen in the third series.

Creators the Duffer Brothers have already confirmed that it’s coming, so here are all the questions that will need answering...

Will we see Eleven’s sister again?

Episode seven, ‘The Lost Sister’, didn’t quite fit in with the rest of the series. While the writers needed to take Eleven out of Hawkins so that she could return and, ultimately, save everyone in the end, this episode-long shift of focus felt a little clunky.

Given how divise the episode has been, we wouldn’t be too shocked if the Duffer Brothers just pretended this whole thing hadn’t happened. But as Eleven’s sister, Kali, remains somewhere out there with her group of bandits and misfits, it has cleared a path for potential future storylines.

And what about the other children used by the lab?

Eleven is (obviously…) number 11 and Kali was branded ‘008’, so - assuming the scientists worked in numerical order - there are potentially at least nine other children that they experimented on. Are they still alive? And if so, will Eleven use her powers to find them, as she did her ‘sister’?

Could Eleven’s mother ever be saved?

It was heartbreaking to watch Millie Bobby-Brown’s character discover the truth about what happened to her mum, finding her suffering from mental and physical health issues after receiving electro-shock treatment from the lab, in order to make her forget about her daughter.

She remains at her home, which begs the question of whether there’s any way she could be saved? Surely Eleven wouldn’t be able to resist visiting her again…
