STRANGER Things fans are worried character Steve Harrington will meet a grisly end after the trailer for season three shows him screaming with a huge needle in his neck.
The third series sees the gang for more horrors – both human and monster – with some fans threatening to “riot” if beloved character Steve dies.
During the trailer for the next installment of the Netflix blockbuster Steve Harrington, played by Joe Keery, can be seen screaming in agony as a giant needle is pushed into his neck.
The haunting image has prompted fans to fear Steve may die.
Taking to Twitter one dramatic fan declared: “If anything happens to Steve Harrington, we riot
While one threatened. “If Steve dies, I will end all of humanity with him.”
Another pleaded: “Y’all so I brightened this picture of Steve and it looks like there’s a big f***ing needle in his neck… I WANNA KNOW WHATS HAPPENING F***..”
One fan accused show creators the Duffer Brothers of personally disliking Steve.
They wrote: “WHY DO PEOPLE HURT YOU SO MUCH?! I’m convinced the Duffer brothers are just evil sadists who love seeing Steve suffer.”
The trailer has been watched nearly 4million times since it dropped on YouTube on Wednesday morning.
Fans are already throwing lots of speculation over the fates of the Hawkins residents with many guessing Mike Wheeler and his mum Joyce may be moving away.
Season three will see Mike and Eleven’s romance continue after they kissed at the end of series two and are seen kissing again in new teaser images.
Steve Harrington will also have a bigger role to play in the new season which will thrill fans who loved the development of his friendship with Dustin in particular.
It’s also been teased that Brenner is still alive, which would pose a fresh threat for Eleven, who was seen to be taking on her true name Jane and getting adopted by Hopper at the end of season two.
Will’s “exorcism” of The Mind Flayer’s influence on him involved the evil particles being expelled into the real world, so it is possible that the Upside Down could continue to have an influence on Hawkins.
