Stranger Things is one of the world’s most popular shows and Steve Harrington is one of its best-known characters. Stranger Things is one of the few TV shows that can literally get the whole world talking.
When it first debuted on Netflix in 2016, the brief, eight-episode first season took the world by storm, and it did so every time a new season was released. One character has undoubtedly become Stranger Things’ most popular over the course of the show. We are, of course, talking about Steve Harrington.
Originally a bully, Steve went through one of television’s best redemption trajectories to become one of its best characters. Steve surprised us all, from his ever-changing relationship with Nancy Wheeler to his wonderful friendships with Dustin Henderson and Robin Buckley.
Speaking of surprises, if you’ve recently started watching Stranger Things and want to know if Steve is alive, here’s everything you need to know.

Does Steve die in Stranger Things?
If you’re eager to find out if Steve makes it through Stranger Things, rest assured. Not only does he make it through all four seasons, but he also didn’t die right away in season 1.
Yep, it turns out Steve was supposed to die in the show’s first season, and Jonathan’s dad had to help Jonathan and Nancy fight the Demogorgon in the Season 1 finale instead of Jonathan. As for why Steve made it to Season 1, it turns out that actor Joe Keery and his stellar performance had a lot to do with it.
