The Duffer brothers have debunked a rumor about the Stranger Things series finale that suggests Mike’s theory about Eleven being alive might be real after all.
Right before the bridge collapses and we jump forward 18 months, there’s weird audio that sounds like a heartbeat. Fans took this to mean that it must be a subtle indicator that Eleven actually lives, but apparently it’s actually just distorted audio of bricks being laid.

Part of why some fans were so upset with the series finale was the unwillingness to take a risk and kill off a major character. Even though it certainly seems that Eleven dies, it’s still just… implied. It’s Mike’s hopeful theory that Eleven found a peaceful life elsewhere that leads even the viewer to think she may not be dead… which is why fans were thinking there must have been a surprise final episode a la Conformity Gate that tells us what really happened to her. I guess we’ll find out in 20 years.
