In a bizarre turn of events, Stranger Things star Jamie Campbell Bower, who plays Henry Creel aka Vecna in the sci-fi series, seems to be accidentally encouraging the new fan-founded conspiracy theory taking over the internet known as Conformity Gate.
Whilst on The Tonight Show, the star took part in an '80s-style aerobics workout video inspired by his character. This is no doubt making fun of the fact that Vecna looked way leaner in Stranger Things season 5 than he did in season 4. However, at the end of the clip, Bower says, "Let's channel our energy. Tomorrow it begins," before the screen turns red.
The video was posted on January 6, meaning that "tomorrow" is in fact January 7, the date in which Conformity Gate believers think the real Stranger Things season finale will drop. With that in mind, fans are certain this is Bower's subtle way of confirming that Conformity Gate is real. One fan took to Twitter, writing, "Isn’t it ironic that Vecna, on the day before [Conformity Gate], is having his own segment basically a way of saying we all got Vecna'd?"
