STRANGER THINGS Season 3 Fan Theory Suggests One of the Kids will Become the Monster

We just recently got our first look at the new monster the kids will be facing when Stranger Things returns to Netflix for a 3rd season on July 4th. Eleven and friends have defeated the Demogorgon and the Mind-Flayer, but Season 3’s beastie may be their toughest challenge yet—especially if a new fan theory making the rounds proves true.

What if this new abomination doesn’t come from the depth of the Upside-Down, but from quiet, unassuming Hawkins itself? And what if this monster is actually someone we’ve known since Season 2? What if the monster in Stranger Things Season 3 is Max’s ne’er-do-well brother, Billy (played by Dacre Montgomery)? Sure, he’s kind of a dick, but it would certainly add some emotional currency to any impending battles.
