Did Selena Gomez Die in the Wizards Beyond Waverly Place Finale?

There’s an old saying about closed doors leading to new opportunities, but in Season 2 of *Wizards Beyond Waverly Place*, that ‘opportunity’ turned out to be a pretty dark place. Selena Gomez’s character, Alex Russo, returned only to seemingly meet a quick end – a common TV trope where beloved characters are brought back just to be killed off again. This has happened before in shows like *Angel* and *Halloween: Resurrection*. The twist? Alex discovered she had a long-lost daughter, Billie, and ultimately sacrificed herself to seal a dangerous portal to a dark, magical dimension. An evil wizard opened the portal, and the only way to close it was from *inside* that hellish place. Talk about a downer.
