Eleven faces down Vecna in a new poster for Stranger Things season 4, part 2. The Hawkins kids have faced a lot of scary supernatural enemies across Stranger Things’ six-year Netflix run. But none have been as terrifying as season 4’s monstrous Vecna.

Stranger Things then filled in the backstory of Vecna, revealing that he was once a boy named Henry Creel whose psychokinetic abilities led Martin Brenner to imprison him inside Hawkins Laboratory as the test subject designated 001. But in a twist, Creel’s attempt to murder everyone at the lab led the young Eleven to send him to the Upside Down where he slowly began transforming into the horrible monster later dubbed Vecna after the Dungeons & Dragons character.
