Who Does Sydney Bullock Play on ‘Stranger Things’?
Fans may remember Bullock as Stacey, a popular, slightly snobbish high schooler who appeared on multiple seasons of “Stranger Things,” including the finale.
One of Bullock’s memorable scenes on the show was when Stacey laughed off Dustin’s attempt to ask her to the Snow Ball dance.
She also popped up at the Starcourt Mall, where Eleven and Max pranked her and her friends, using telekinetic powers to send their drinks exploding.
In the final season, Stacey showed a softer side, praising Dustin’s rebellious graduation speech and inviting him, Mike, Lucas, and Will to a party.
