  • Jamie Campbell Bower said he would take pictures of Vecna's victims and make them look like her.

  • The villain on "Stranger Things" had to be tapped into Vecna's anger.

  • The first part of the fourth season of "Stranger Things" is about to begin.

Jamie Campbell Bower, who plays Vecna in the fourth season of "Stranger Things," said he printed out photos of the victims to "stare at."

The second part of the fourth season of "Stranger Things" aired on July 1 on the internet.

The series focuses on the supernatural occurrences in a fictional town in the 1980's.

Vecna, a villain with psychic powers who has the power to kill people from an alternate dimensions, is the newest thread from the Upside Down.

He also did his own work to get into the villain's head, as he told People.

He told the publication that he would take pictures of the victims. I would put them up on my wall after printing them off. I would look at them.

Vecna targets teens in Indiana who are grappling with their own personal trauma, preying on their fears and eventually killing them.

He said that he would do repetitive exercises to tap into the character's resentment and that he would print out photos.

Preparing meant a lot of heavy, dark meditation, low-frequency sounds, and a lot of saying the same kind of thing over and over again.

While preparing for the role, the actor said he would clear his mind and repeat certain phrases over and over again.

Music helped when it came to tapping into Vecna's fur. I used it to either reignite that or just kind of stay in a zone and I would sit in pitch black.
