14) Will’s Vulnerability Makes Him Relatable

Unlike the bolder, more outgoing characters in Stranger Things, Will is not afraid to show his fear and scars. He’s often the one who needs rescuing, and that only makes him more human. The fear, trauma, and uncertainty he endures are feelings we can all relate to. We can’t help but root for him because, deep down, he’s simply a child doing his best to survive. His vulnerability isn’t a sign of weakness; rather, it’s what makes him one of the most genuine and emotionally resonant characters in the series.
