Hellboy (stylized in all caps) is the fifth and final mixtape by American rapper Lil Peep. It was self-released on September 25, 2016. The mixtape was promoted by two singles and later a headlining tour, The Peep Show Tour, in the spring of 2017.

Upon Peep's death from a drug overdose in November 2017, a Billboard article mentioned "Girls" as one out of seven songs from the late rapper as one of his best works.[2] In 2019, Pitchfork ranked Hellboy at number 193 in its list of "The 200 Best Albums of the 2010s".

On September 25, 2020, Peep's estate re-released Hellboy to streaming platforms on its fourth anniversary with AUTNMY via AWAL.[3][4] It released with "drive by" being reproduced with the help of Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein due to sample clearance issues.[5][6]
