Stranger Things 3 finally dropped on Netflix this week, and it brought fans back to the mayhem, fun, and terror that is Hawkins, Indiana. During the first episode of the new season, Billy Hargrove (Dacre Montgomery) was infected by The Mind Flayer, making him a new big bad. While Billy wasn’t exactly a good guy in season two, the character has been knocked up a few pegs into straight-up evil territory. Since Montgomery has been playing a villain since he started on the show, it’s a nice treat to see him having fun with the series’ younger cast. Well, thanks to a recent Instagram post from Millie Bobby Brown AKA Eleven, we’re getting a fun behind-the-scenes look at the true Montgomery.
