Stranger Thingsexecutive producer Shawn Levy told The Hollywood Reporter on Friday that there will be no Barb resurrection in Season 2, which, to be clear, is not news -- but sometimes we need to be told.

But she is dead.

Reminder: This is how we last saw Barb:

Even Melisandre can't bring a girl back from that. It's time we moved on and let Barb finally get some damn peace.
