Who Is Kali Prasad, AKA 'Eight,' In 'Stranger Things' Season 5?
"With Stranger Things season 5 now on Netflix, fans were treatedor perhaps, traumatizedto be reunited with a nearly-forgotten character from an episode fans were keen to move past. In episode 4, "Chapter 4: Sorcerer," our heroes learn that the military hasn't only been using Vecna to track down Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) but someone else entirely. In fact, it's someone from Eleven's past who also comes from the Hawkins Lab. Warning: Major spoilers for Stranger Things season 5 ahead."
"In case your memories of 2017 are really foggy, here's the gist: Like Eleven and Vecna, Eight was one of a handful of test subjects at Hawkins Lab. Unlike Eleven, Eight has the power of mental illusions, capable of making you see projections (including doubles of herself and other people) that aren't really there. She can also use this power to render herself and anyone she chooses invisible, although it takes a great amount of effort and stress."
Stranger Things season 5 returns Linnea Berthelsen as Eight (Kali Prasad), a former Hawkins Lab test subject revealed behind a locked door in the Upside Down. Eight possesses mental-illusion powers that create projections and can render people invisible at great effort. Eight first appeared in season 2's prologue and had a central role in the divisive episode 'The Lost Sister.' Season 5's episode 4, "Chapter 4: Sorcerer," reveals the military captured Eight while also using Vecna to locate Eleven. The reunion recalls Eight's Chicago encounter with Eleven and resurfaces mixed fan memories of 2017.
