No spoilers here, but you can <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/stranger-things-4-part-2-review\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">read RadioTimes.com\u2019s review<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of the release, the official Twitter account for Stranger Things posted a way to find out which track would come to your rescue, were you to be faced with the creature.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve already compiled a handy list if you\u2019re in the mood to listen to <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/stranger-things-season-4-soundtrack\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">the soundtrack of Stranger Things season 4<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Now, according to the team behind the show, if you head over to Spotify and search for your \u2018Upside Down Playlist\u2019 (if you use the music streaming app, you\u2019ve definitely got one, we\u2019ve checked!) you\u2019re to play the first song that comes up.<\/p> <p>This can lead to interesting results, we can confirm. You could be singing along to mild pop, an old classic or something to really get you dancing. Either way, there would certainly be an added incentive for pressing play on this particular playlist if it meant warding off the frightening Vecna!<\/p>\n<p>Stranger Things put in a lot of work to bring Vecna to life, as talented prosthetics expert Barrie Gower recently revealed. He <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/stranger-things-vecna-make-up-exclusive-newsupdate\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">told RadioTimes.com<\/a> that the make up for the character took seven hours to apply.<\/p>\n<p>Gower also informed us that Vecna was <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/stranger-things-vecna-inspiration-exclusive-newsupdate\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">inspired by two very different HBO series<\/a>. The backstory for the villain tells us that it began life in human form, before brutally murdering its family.<\/p>\n<p>In the first half of season 4, viewers saw Vecna overpowered by Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown), sending him into the Upside Down. Eleven was then revealed as the sole survivor of Vecna\u2019s murderous rampage.<\/p>\n<p>Head over to Netflix now to find out where that leaves Eleven, as Stranger Things continues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stranger Things season 4 part 2 comes to\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/streaming\/netflix\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Netflix<\/a>\u00a0today.\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Check out more of our\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Sci-Fi<\/a>\u00a0coverage or visit our\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0to see what\u2019s on tonight.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The latest issue of Radio Times magazine is on sale now \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/radiotimes.com\/magazine-subscription?utm_term=evergreen-article&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\" noreferrer=\"\" data-auth=\"&quot;NotApplicable&quot;\" data-linkindex=\"&quot;0&quot;\">subscribe now<\/a>\u00a0and get the next 12 issues for only \u00a31.
