The series finale of Stranger Things left fans with one lingering question: did Eleven survive after sacrificing herself to destroy the Upside Down?

In the final episode of season five, Eleven appears to give her life to stop Vecna and the Mind Flayer, prompting many viewers to believe her story ended in tragedy. However, an 18-month time jump offers a more hopeful, yet uncertain possibility. Mike Wheeler tells the rest of the group that Eleven escaped with help from her sister Kali and is living quietly in a remote village near cascading waterfalls, a future he and Eleven once imagined together.

That explanation, though, is never confirmed onscreen.
