I've got to admit I'm finding it difficult now to write meaningful commentaries about characters like Erica that have made it into the top 10, but I'll give it a go lol Erica finishes ahead of Vecna (also Henry Creel); the younger sister of Lucas Sinclair who is also still in the running. Priah Ferguson does a fantastic job at making Erica such a believably strong, independent, sassy girl who can check anybody and put them in their place when the timing fits. That aside, she plays a more pivotal role in later seasons even if she becomes reduced to a look-out role for the majority of the final season, watching out for immediate threats and radioing to those actually in on the action to warn them. And then we have Vecna, finishing just above his sister turned adversary Eleven. Given the character of Vecna wasn't conceived right at the beginning of the show, it becomes very apparent that was the case in the opening moments of the final season where we have quite a jarring link back to how all of this began that isn't quite as believable as it could be. Nonetheless, Jamie Campbell Bower puts in a magnificent performance as the villain right until the very end. Vecna is continually becoming more and more powerful as the show goes on; more of a threat than the Mind Flayer even if we're supposed to believe that they 'became one' by the end. Some of the most impactful Vecna (or should I say Henry) moments come from the looking back at the time spent in Hawkins Lab, however, as well as his communication (and interception from) Will in the final season.

8. Erica Sinclair

9. Henry Creel / Vecna
