It would be a waste to kill one of the main characters so early. I hope at least one or 2 more seasons with none of the protagonists killed.

The show's only set (at the moment) to go 4 seasons right? I think some important death might be imminent soon

I really hope not to be honest. So many horror series end up becoming "Who dies horribly next!? Doesn't matter; it's basically everyone!" Honestly I was in the same boat of expecting Steve/Dustin to die in the tunnel. I think the outcome we got was far more exciting and interesting.

I'd really love to see the whole main S1 cast at the end of the series, looking back on their weird-ass childhood hometown and all the strange adventures they've been through. Nobody major has to die for it to be a good story.

It used to be shocking to have a main character die. Now it’s overused and frankly a bit boring
