Chief Hopper from 'Stranger Things' is the newest holiday victim in a Photoshop battle

Stranger Holidays: How the Hopper Stole Christmas.

Stranger Things and Stranger Things 2 actor, David Harbour has some major holiday vibes, but it could still use some work.

The actor who portrays our favorite fearless and beloved officer, Chief Jim Hopper, sported one of the most festive holiday sweaters in honor of his appreciation for his first ever Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actor.

In a photo posted to Instagram on Monday, Harbour posed in the freshest way possible, tipping his sheriff hat to the Golden Globes.

The post was such a hit that Reddit users decided that the Chief could use some Photoshop enhancement. So they did just that.

Chief Hopper: Hawkins officer, guardian of Eleven, slayer of demogorgons, and a beautiful cover man. Just look at that 'smize'.
