Millie Bobby Brown Shares the ‘Stranger Things’ Finale Keepsake Props That Left Her Sobbing

In a fight for survival that expands over 4 seasons and a decade, Millie Bobby Brown‘s Eleven battled Demogorgons, dodged Demobats, and fought through the chaos of the Upside Down in Stranger Things. But it was not just another job for Brown. The young star who literally grew up on the sets of the show and rose to international fame through it harbors a deep love for it. Now that the time to say her goodbyes has come, Brown finds it hard to let go.

While the fifth and final season is highly rumored to appear on screens before this year’s end, Millie Bobby Brown spilled the beans on the keepsake from the sets that left her sobbing her eyes out.

Millie Bobby Brown gets candid about her most beloved prop from Stranger Things

Millie Bobby Brown recently appeared on the segment Trailer Talk and Tea hosted by Stranger Things’ hair stylist, Sarah Hindsgaul. There she revealed that from the sets of the finale, Brown got to keep the pink dress, which was the most important thing to her, “I literally sobbed when I went home and opened it and saw it. It felt like a piece of my childhood is with me forever now.” Elevating the experience, the production framed the dress for Brown.

Though Millie Bobby Brown did not think that she would get it, she did, and unveiling it at home is a cherished memory for her, as Brown further shared that she was on the floor, crying and holding it. “I was so excited,” she added. Apart from that, she also got to keep all of Eleven’s outfits from the 5th season, as well as many cool shoes her character wore. While the goodies will always give her good memories, saying goodbye was the hardest thing for the actress.

When Millie Bobby Brown finally acted out the last scenes of the Stranger Things franchise, it was a crushing ending to the most wonderful era for her.

When Millie Bobby Brown talked about her show wrap-up with a heavy heart

Millie Bobby Brown’s Stranger Things journey started at the age of 11, where she ironically played Eleven too. But Brown not only enacted her but fully embraced the character, growing from a child into a young woman with the character’s shadow lingering behind her. Earlier this year, speaking to The Hollywood Reporter at The Electric State’s premiere, Brown reflected on the emotional moment of the cast wrapping up the finale. She described it as a deeply personal and “niche” feeling, saying, “I don’t think anyone could relate to it.”

When she heard the words, “That’s a wrap on Millie Bobby Brown,” to her, it felt like a wrap on Eleven, and watching her co-stars wrap their scenes made the experience even more overwhelming. Now she has become one of the most in-demand actresses of the modern era with a long portfolio. But as Brown has reiterated, she will always love Eleven, and the show, just as fans will have their golden memories etched in their brains.
