Origin and character’s universe
In mid-1985, the town of Hawkins in Indiana seems to be returning to a semblance of normality with the summer buzz surrounding the brand-new Starcourt Mall. However, a year after the apparent defeat ofthe Mind Flayer, a far more vicious threat lurks in the shadows. Billy Hargrove, Max’s arrogant and aggressive older brother, becomes its very first victim when his car breaks down near an abandoned warehouse. Captured and infected by the creature from the Upside Down, he becomes the primary host and leader of ‘The Flayed’. Deprived of his free will, Billy is tasked with abducting the town’s inhabitants and building an army of flesh to feed the monster. His psychological ordeal and his ultimate sacrifice in the face of the creature to protect Eleven and his sister mark one of the darkest and most memorable story arcs in the series.
