However, one user did spot him – but it seemed they were the only one.
The star in question was Jamie Campbell Bower, who plays Vecna.
The surprised social media user expressed online: “I can’t believe I saw him.”
His character serves as the arch-villain of the series and has become a fan favorite.
Jamie recently shared his thoughts on the show's final season, admitting he is ready for a break from the series.
In an interview with People earlier this year, the actor stated: “It’s been amazing, and it’s been an incredible journey to join the show from season 4, to be part of something that so many people love, including myself.”
“But I am definitely ready to hang up the foam latex and bid him a slippery farewell.”
Jamie has appeared in numerous films and TV shows before achieving success on Stranger Things.
He first gained mainstream recognition for his role in The Mortal Instruments.
Jamie also had supporting roles in The Twilight Saga and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part One.
Stranger Things fans are eagerly anticipating the upcoming episodes, especially after a thrilling first look at Volume Two of the current season.
An action-packed trailer was released earlier this week, teasing what’s still to come in the series.
The trailer hints at a foreboding fate for characters Steve Harrington (Joe Keery) and Dustin Henderson (Gaten Matarazzo).
It featured many familiar faces battling the monster Vecna and exploring the Upside Down – the mysterious alternate dimension that mirrors the world in Stranger Things.
One standout moment for devoted fans occurred when friends Dustin and Steve shared intense dialogue.
As they prepared for battle, Steve looked at Dustin and said, “You die, I die.” Following a brief moment of explosive action, the trailer returned to the duo.
“You die, I die,” a determined Dustin replied to Steve, who nodded in agreement.
Fans interpreted this as a sign that the pair might be killed off and are hoping that doesn’t happen.
