Now that Stranger Things will end with season 5, these are the characters who deserve a happy ending in the final season of the Duffer Brothers' hit Netflix series. Ever since Hawkins, Indiana became the gateway to the Upside Down and the playground of all its most formidable creatures, fans have watched as superhuman Eleven and her motley crew of friends have tried to keep the forces of darkness from spreading. Each Stranger Things character has suffered grief and loss balancing the complexities of everyday life like work, school, and love with the impending dread of hell on Earth.
At the end of season 4 Hopper and Joyce had been reunited with nearly all the children, but the reunion was bittersweet after the devastation caused by Vecna, the eldritch horror that Eleven helped inadvertently create. With Dustin reeling from the loss of Eddie, Max hospitalized and fighting for her life, Murray missing, and no clear strategy of how the party defeats Vecna for good, it's almost impossible to envision closure with so much at stake, but the season will have a significant time jump that might help. Every single one of these characters deserves a happy ending after the incredible obstacles they've overcome to get to this point.
Enzo
No one knows what happened to Dmitri (aka Enzo) after the end of season 4 when the former Soviet prison guard helped Hopper, Joyce, and Murray escape from the military facility in Kamchatka. A winning combination of dry wit, bravery, and resourcefulness, Dmitri was a standout addition to the growing cast, and although Hopper and Joyce returned to the United States, what happened to Dmitri, Murray, and Yuri is still unknown. After being stripped of his rank for helping Hopper and risking his life against the Demogorgons, Enzo deserves to be reunited with his son and sent on a nice vacation in a warm climate.
Murray
Prior to being pulled into the sordid supernatural things happening in Hawkins, Murray could simply be a conspiracy theorist without knowing the real truth behind the Upside Down. After being dragged along on all sorts of wild adventures with Hopper and Joyce, however, he's become one of the favorite of the adult characters after braving the Russian tundra to save Hopper, and checking in on Joyce and the kids in California with a risotto recipe at the ready. Murray not only deserves to be happy, but he also deserves to open his own karate school
