Stranger Things fans notice major flaw with Demogorgons’ powers from Upside Down spanning back to season 1 – The Sun

STRANGER Things’ legions of monsters bring major fear factor to the Netflix sci-fit hit, but in many ways they remain shrouded in mystery.

The beasties first emerged from the Upside Down – a sinister alternative world – in season 1 and have remained a staple on the show ever since.

However, upon revisiting some of the earlier episodes, fans have noticed some inconsistencies with the ferocious creatures.

Named after the gang’s favourite opponent in Dungeons & Dragons, the Demogorgon, the first of the Upside Down spawn breaks into Hawkins and wastes no time terrorising the locals.

However, viewers have complained that at no point is a motive made clear for the rampage.

What’s more, the source of their powers, as well as their applications, are rarely consistent.


“I’m so confused after my fourth rewatch, I still don’t have an answer except that he said that the Demogorgon got him.” 

The post was flooded with upvotes and messages of agreement from like-minded viewers, who couldn’t understand why the Demogorgon would go after Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) of all people in the first place.

Another puzzled viewer commented: “I'm wondering about that too!

“Does the Demogorgon have powers? He unlocks the door just like Eleven does!”

The Demogorgon does indeed display telekinetic abilities along the lines of Eleven’s, opening a lock mechanism to get to Will.

However, at no point is this explained, whereas Eleven’s gifts powers extensively explored during a dive into her past as an experiment subject.

Filming for season 4 of Stranger Things has currently been put on hold amid the global coronavirus outbreak.

However, producers offered fans a look behind the scenes with a teaser clip of the cast’s first readthrough.

Stranger Things seasons 1-3 are available to stream on Netflix.
