17 '80s-Inspired Easter Eggs in "Stranger Things" Season 4

The season ends on a bittersweet note with Max's fate left up in the air as she lies in a coma after her encounter with Vecna. In the hospital, we see Lucas reading aloud to Max from Stephen King's "The Talisman." The book is about a young boy who goes on a cross-country quest looking for the titular "talisman" in hopes of saving his mother's life. A nod to the show's horror roots . . . or a hint at Lucas's arc for the final season?
