An official release date for Stranger Things season 2 has not yet been announced, but it will debut on Netflix in time for Halloween 2017.
Played by newcomer Shannon Purser, Barb was Nancy’s (Natalia Dyer) frizzy haired, straightedge best friend.
After Nancy abandons her during a late night get-together at cool kid Steve Harrington’s (Joe Keery) house, Barb is sucked into the Upside Down and killed.
But I will say that her memory and the search for justice for her is a part of season 2.”
