Will there be a School Spirits Season 3? Speculations explored

School Spirits has finished airing yet another exciting season on Paramount+. The supernatural teen drama knows how to keep the audience hooked to the screens with its various twists and turns.

In the second season, which aired its finale on March 6, 2025, Maddie and her friends tried to lure Janet into the school so that Maddie’s spirit could come back to her body. The season ended with a surprising cliffhanger, which left the audience asking for more.

However, School Spirits season 3 is not officially in the works as of now. That being said, Paramount+ might decide to renew the series based on the positive response to the sophomore season.

Will School Spirits Season 3 happen?

At the time of writing, Paramount+ has not officially confirmed School Spirits season 3. However, fans need not be disappointed, as the second season concluded just recently, and the streaming platform might take a few weeks to analyze its viewership numbers before deciding on its continuation.

A similar trend was followed earlier, as season 2 was confirmed around two months after the conclusion of the first installment. What works in the show's favor is that it has reached new heights of popularity, as the viewership has only increased in the second season.

Its success might just prompt Paramount+ to greenlight a third chapter. From the story point of view as well, it would make sense if the show goes on for more episodes since there are questions left unanswered. The season 2 finale’s cliffhanger ending leaves room for a potential third season.

There was a gap of around two years between the first two installments, as the debut season premiered in March 2023 and was followed by the sophomore season in January 2025.

If the same trend is followed and if the show is renewed in the next few weeks, we can expect School Spirits season 3 to premiere at the end of 2026 or the beginning of 2027.

What could be the storyline of School Spirits Season 3?

If the series does get renewed, it would follow up on the season 2 ending, where Maddie returns to her body, but Simon gets stuck in the afterlife. Since the beginning of the series, Simon has had a connection with the afterlife, as he is the only living being who can communicate with Maddie.

Now that Maddie is back to life and Simon has gone into Mr. Martin’s scar, we might see a role reversal as Maddie would be helping Simon reclaim his body.

Meanwhile, the show would also delve into Mr. Martin’s mysteries, as the professor has claimed there are some dangers at the school that nobody knows about. At the same time, Janet has not crossed over and is still lurking around, which means she could once again pose a threat to Maddie and her friends.
