Stranger Things was first introduced back in 2016, but a lot of things have changed since then, including the cast and monsters. Stranger Things season 1 gives fans a lot of favourite characters and for sure fans also hate Joe Keery’s Steve then. And there can be many reasons to hate him including, Steve’s popular bully that ushered into the mix as Nancy’s boyfriend and the central antagonist in Jonathan’s life.
However, things changed in season 2, and Steve became one of the most likeable and complex characters in the entire show, and the actor has only give more and more in later seasons. Steve is generally one of the most beloved characters now, and after part one of the Netflix hit’s fourth season premiered on Friday, fans of the show began to trend on Twitter as they expressed their love and concern for Joe Keery’s character, Steve Harrington.
In Stranger Things season 4, which picks up around six months after the Battle of Starcourt, a new and horrifying supernatural threat called Vecna arises and threatens the safety of Hawkins. After realizing the threat, some of the show’s main characters decide to confront it directly. Towards the end of part one, Steve decides to go in search of another opening to the Upside Down but ends up getting brutally injured.

Though episode seven, which is the finale of part one, confirmed his character is alive, Steve has a particularly bad wound, appears weak and his friends are worried he had been poisoned by Vecna. Besides Keery, the show stars David Harbour, Winona Ryder, Finn Wolfhard, Millie Bobby Brown, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Noah Schnapp, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Maya Hawke, Sadie Sink and many others.
Fans can’t help but ask a rather troubling question, ‘Does Steve die in Stranger Things season 4 part 1?’ Twitter is flooded with concern and worries with one fan writing, “If even a scratch is laid on Steve Harrington in ST4, I’m coming for the duffers.” Another shared, “If Steve Harrington dies this season you will never hear from me again.” “they can kill any stranger things character except for steve Harrington,” wrote someone else. The first seven episodes of Stranger Things season 4 are now streaming on Netflix. Episodes 8 and 9 are scheduled to premiere on July 1.
