Stranger Things might be over but the memories will last forever. But just in case you need something to jog your memory, you can never go wrong with souvenirs. Jamie Campbell Bower, who played the villain Vecna on the Netflix sci-fi horror series, was fortunate enough to take home a few things from the Stranger Things set.
“Trauma. A lot of trauma,” Jamie Campbell Bower jokes during a spotlight panel at Emerald City Comic Con 2026.
“I have one of the hands of Vecna. I was fortunate enough that Barrie Gower, who makes Vecna, allowed me to steal one without having to go through the appropriate channels. Sorry Barrie, I think I’ve just outed you. I have a 3D mold of my own head. I have a piece of costume from Mr. Whatsit.”
“Another great thing that Barrie gave me was he made a scale model of Vecna from a 3D mold that he took of me, and it’s hand-painted by the team at BGFX, which is a very, very cool thing to have. I feel very lucky.”
Having a 3D mold of your own head is pretty wild, but then again, Stranger Things was a wild show to begin with. I hope Bower has fun using it to freak out his friends.
