The first full trailer for Stranger Things upcoming season three has finally dropped, and the kids are all growing up so fast!
Set in the summer of 1985, the music, fashion and overall aesthetic is so excellent that you forget for the first half of this trailer that this is a sci-fi show with some kind of monster-based horror on the horizon.
As happy as I am to see the whole gang back in action, this gross new monster really spoiled my Sultana Bran this morning.
Billy Hargrove (Max’s douchebag stepbrother) is definitely one to watch out for this season. And not just because his jerky-ness is hidden well behind this handsome aesthetic.
There’s a quick flash showing Billy in the shower (ooft), and seemingly infected by something from The Upside Down. Maybe he was bitten by one of the many rats that featured in the Stranger Things teaser in what they’re calling ‘the feeding’.
Something is growing inside Billy and it doesn’t look good.
We see the gross new monster in what looks like a hospital, which could mean that someone (Billy) was admitted when he transformed into the tarantula demogorgon thing. Just a theory!
Stranger Things 3 Theories:
The Missing Lifeguard is Billy as you can tell he is clearly one in the trailer and it looks like he was infected by what I think is what they keep referring to as “the feeding” maybe it was a rat bite.

THAT OMINOUS SHOT OF THAT “BITE” ON BILLY’S ARM… if that evil asshole turns into that creature at the end of the trailer… RIP HAWKINS.

But the real highlight of this whole trailer, is Eleven discovering the mall. Shop in peace sweet girl because there are some nosebleeds coming your way soon.
