** SPOILER ALERT for Stranger Things Season 4**
We all knew Stranger Things Season 4 was going to be epic and it's safe to say that for viewers waiting on the second instalment of the season, it didn't disappoint.
In fact, fans are hailing the finale as one of the best episodes yet, with one particular scene being called 'iconic' by viewers.
In the final episode of the second part of season four, viewers watched Hawkins' Hellfire Club head into the Upside Down to take on Vecna. Yet the standout moment for fans was watching character Eddie Munson play guitar in the alternate universe, all while facing down hellish bats with his life in serious danger.

The dramatic scene combined with the 80s hit 'Master of Puppets' by Metallica has won fans over already, with some even saying it could get the same status as Kate Bush's 'Running Up That Hill' in the first part of season four.
One fan tweeted: "How powerful was this scene, where eddie sounded and dedicated master of puppets of metallica to chrissy?"
