Given that Stranger Things is full of ‘80s pop culture references, it was only a matter of time before a Metallica song made its way into the show. For those of you watching season four of the Netflix show, you may have come across a scene recently that involves the character Eddie Munson playing a Metallica song – that song being “Master of Puppets.”

The song makes an appearance towards the end of the season four finale. There’s a whole lot going on in this scene – besides Eddie performing the Metallica song. There are monsters, red lightning – lots of cool sci-fi horror. You can check out the scene where Eddie Munson plays “Master of Puppets” below. Also, spoiler warning!
