A pivotal moment in the last episode of 'Stranger Things' almost didn't happen
Netflix
But when he talked to Business Insider on Tuesday, he revealed how an important moment in the finale of the first season almost didn't happen - and without it, we'd be going into the just-announced season two with different implications.
At the close of chapter eight, "The Upside Down," police chief Jim Hopper (David Harbour) brings food from his station's Christmas party and leaves it in a box in the woods, along with a few Eggos. The short but crucial moment indicates that Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown), the girl with psychokinetic abilities that saved the town from a monster and who has since vanished, could still be alive.

"It was just going to be some food from the party," Levy told Business Insider. "['Stranger Things' creators-directors] The Duffers and I were talking about the scene over dinner one night and together we hatched this idea of leaving the Eggos specifically just to hint who he might be leaving the food for, or the hope of who he would be leaving the food for. That was one of 50 decisions that you stumble into and they become defining moments."
It would certainly be less clear what Hopper was doing if the Eggos weren't included.
Netflix announced Wednesday that there will be a second season of "Stranger Things" comprised of nine episodes.
Levy would not reveal to Business Insider whether Eleven will be back. Though the Duffer brothers have said in numerous interviews that they want to continue the story with the main kids, they were vague with Entertainment Weekly about the fate of Eleven.
""We don't know about Eleven," Ross Duffer said. "We leave that up in the air."
