One of the best moments in the latest season of Stranger Things occurred in the finale when Eddie played Metallica's "Master of Puppets" in order to distract the demobats in the Upside Down.

Similar to Kate Bush's 1985 hit "Running Up That Hill", Metallica's 1986 track "Master of Puppets" has had a massive streaming boost in 2022 since the episode aired.

In a brand new video posted to Twitter by Netflix, Quinn meets Metallica for the first time and even gets to jam with the legendary rock band.

Lead singer James Hetfield tells the 29-year-old he's been a fan of the hit Netflix show since its first season.

Metallica also gifts Quinn a guitar that looks nearly identical to the one he played in the show.
