SHADOW MONSTER / MIND FLAYER
A mysterious entity, looming at fifty stories tall and made up entirely of silver-black particles, the Shadow monster exercised supreme control of the Upside Down. It did so through a psychic link between the Demogorgans, vines, and possessed humans ("the Flayed"), forming a hive mind. Although it has always been looming, the Shadow Monster makes it's first real appearance in Hawkins only after absorbing the dissolved flesh of the Flayed.
