There’s an unwritten golden rule in TV: a character is never truly dead unless you see the body.

That’s why many “Stranger Things” fans still believe Eleven survived the series finale, which ends with Mike Wheeler imagining a future in which she survives the final showdown with Vecna in the Upside Down.

It was also inevitable that, during her first major press tour after the end of “Stranger Things,” Millie Bobby Brown would be confronted with that very question. At a live recording of “Happy Sad Confused” at 92NY, Josh Horowitz playfully prodded Brown about Eleven’s fate in what’ll likely be the first round of many similar moments she’ll face for the rest of her career — or at least until the Duffer brothers allow her to break her pact.
