The Upside Down is a tesseract.
(time theory)
The writers tweeted a picture of the book Wrinkle in Time, which its title refers to a tesseract. You may ask, what's a tesseract? The basis is that a tesseract is a fifth dimension (the fourth dimension is time). Even in the book, to explain it, they use the same metaphor that they used in Stranger Things about the flea.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here they're only using this concept to travel through dimensions. In ST, creating gates with so much power that tore space and time. And in the book, in a very similar way, to make a shortcut go to point A to point B.
We know that El has the power to create these gates, so Vecna is interested in her. And she also was the one who sent Henry to another dimension for the first time. But if you pay attention, this dimension didn't look like the Upside Down, so it makes me believe that these aren't the same place.
One is blue with spores and looks like Hawkins on November sixth, 1983, the day Willl disappeared (remember that the Duffers said this was important, and they will explain it in s5). And the other has warm colors and looks like a desert with many rocks.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My theory is that Will created the Upside Down while trying to hide from the Demogorgon. As in Wrinkle in Time, not everyone has the power of tesser. And Will manipulated time and space to create this fifth dimension.
We have seen how the Upside Down can affect the real world via the lights. They use light particles to communicate with others. A similar way that Interstellar uses the strings in the fifth dimension (also a tesseract). But in Stranger Things, they have only used it to communicate in the same period of time (the present), but what if there's a way to also communicate to other periods of time (the past)?
In Interstellar, the tesseract is an enormous structure used to communicate through gravity. Still, it's Copper's love for his daughter that allows him to see her in the past and communicate with her in this exact period. Because the premise of the movie is love transcends time and space.

ST also uses the trope of the power of love. So where I'm going with this? Our heroes will find a way to communicate with their past selves to try to prevent things, but I don't think they will be able to change the past even if they try.
My reason to believe that they will also play with time is that our villain literally has a clock motif and is obsessed with time. Also, there have been some references about time travel. And going back to season 1, the night Will disappeared, the lights in Mike's house were flickering. And the light in Will's bike also started to flicker, so he was able to notice the Demogorgon. Maybe it also was a warning. Still, if we continue with this theory, Vecna was living in the other dimension, not in the Upside Down, so he wasn't the one manipulating the lights because Will hadn't created it "yet." So who was behind the flickering? Our heroes in the future.
This isn't a new theory; I know this is the basis of flickergate. It's cute the idea that they were kissing in the Upside Down, but I think they were trying to prevent Will from leaving. Like in Interstellar, Cooper uses Morse code to send the message "STAY" But in both cases, they couldn't stop it.
Remember the iconic scene with Joyce and the Christmas lights, when she painted an alphabet, and someone warned her to RUN. Some people had questioned how Will was able to see the letters when the Upside Down was stuck on the day he disappeared. So, what if it wasn't the Will who was stuck in the UD and was someone from the future that was trying to save her (maybe Will but his future self).
There may be more examples of lights flickering, but these are the two that I remember right now.
Also, we know that Will could call his house via the phone. And in season 2, when they discovered that the way to defeat the Mindflayer was by closing the gate, the phone started to ring, so Will knew he was in the Byers' house. Maybe Vecna also will figure out how to use the Upside Down and try to intercept their plan, calling the house at that time.
Bonus: Arrival was in the s4 movie list inspiration. A movie that also plays with the concept that time is non-linear. The key to communicating with the aliens is understanding how they perceive time. You can read more about it in this analysis of the movie.
In conclusion: The Upside Down is a fifth dimension (a tesseract) where you can communicate with others dimensions, not only in the present.

if (when) byler becomes canon, i feel like (on full rewatch) it'll end up feeling like the core of the stranger things plot with how much of the story can be seen as parallels or double meanings about them; molded to them

do u think henry is gay? /gen
I think he is. or at least it’s my headcanon that he is.
it’s also something I think might later be revealed to be one of the things Henry and Will have in common. maybe it can even be what Henry uses to convince Will that they’re alike, since Will’s sexuality is what convinces him that there’s something (according to his own belief) “wrong” with him. and perhaps Henry | Vecna might even use that to make Will see that Will is just like him. that they both struggle just the same.
now what happens after, is either Will caves and joins Vecna, or he stands his ground and makes Vecna see that — while they have so many things in common — they are also completely different. because Vecna | Henry chooses the path that involves death and violence, while Will chooses the opposite one.
that being said, though, unless my theory’s right and Henry’s sexuality will later be what connects him to Will, I don’t think the show will go any much deeper, if not at all, into it.

I am SO DEEP in the weeds right now about the "Surfer Boy" motif in Stranger Things beginning in S3 and being cemented in S4.
It began with kind of a joke post, but now I'm fully convinced if its deeper meaning re: queer coding and what it could possibly mean for S5.

The more I think about it the more I like the idea that mike was supposed to be the 4th and final sacrifice and him going to California kicked off every problem that Henry had in his plan, like it was Chrissy, Fred, max, and then mike. The plan was take max out for El and take mike out for Will, by the time they come back to Hawkins for the funerals all the gates are open and Wills mental state is worse for wear and for the first time he's without Mike, his rock. There's no longer anyone to pull him from the brink which makes Will perfect to manipulate and finally get on Henry's side for good. But Mike leaves and he suddenly needs a new number 4 so he finds Patrick and then max, his number 3, finds a loophole so he has to take Patrick instead as 3 and max becomes his final sacrifice. It all worked out in the end for him and Will was still drawn back but the only hitch in his plan is still Mike. He's still alive which means he needs to get rid of him in some way if he's ever going to have a chance to get to Will

actually so curious about that castle byers pic because the whole structure looks pretty intact and i'm wondering if this is pre or post whatever breaks into it (from a flashback or current time perspective)
(i've seen a lot of people assume UD castle byers was completely destroyed in s1, but that actually doesn't seem to be the case, whatever is outside quite literally just blasts a hole in the wall. don't have a clip at hand, but the left and right side of the wall are completely fine and don't move, it's only that 1 meter wide segment in the middle that has wood blasted out of
Tumblr media
UD castle byers is currently probably still 80% in tact, just with a hole in one side assuming that whatever got Will didn't elephant in porcelain store the whole thing on it's way out)
because that whole scene is still Sooooo. probably one of the more obvious gaps we have in Will's UD stay lore wise (aside from the question of how Will even got to the UD without being eaten or physically injured). since the scene cuts away to the credits and we don't know what actually happens. specifically how and more importantly WHY Will was brought to the library (but also questions like, was that even the DG when we can see the hole in the wall with no DG in front of it)
i've always assumed if we got a direct flashback to Will's time in the UD after the fact it would be to this scene specifically. just based on how purposefully vague it is (literal cut away) and how many questions (specifically about the library that only gets more important each season) it brings up. but that seems even more likely now after we had the opening of s5 revealed to be Will singing should i stay or should i go... which he coincidentally also happened to do in this scene right before all the ??? things happen
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this also being the first time we actually See Will do it, any other time he sings it's over the walkies
so just saying, but if s5 opened with an extended version of that scene it would be sick
