Pop Culture- Where is Barb?
The iconic show Stranger Things is about a boy named Will Byers that went missing one night in the dark mysterious wooded area near his hometown in Indiana. For the duration of the show, you see his friends and family searching for him and finding out what took him away. One night Nancy and Barb went to a party at Nancy's boyfriends' house and Barb disappeared in the misty fog on the diving board. Nobody seemed to care that Barb was missing except Nancy. We don't see Barb in the show for a few more episodes and when we do she is in the underworld with a slug in her mouth apparently "dead".
