School Spirits, starring Peyton List, will be back for another go-round. Paramount+ has renewed the hit original drama series for a third season, for premiere in 2026.

The news is not surprising, given the success of its second season, which wrapped just two weeks ago. Season 2 premiered to an average audience of 3.9M in its first 28 days, up 94% from the season 1 premiere.

“We are so thrilled to bring School Spirits back to our devoted audiences for another season of masterful storytelling brought to life by Peyton List and the incredible cast,” said Shauna Phelan, Head of Live Action Scripted Series and Film for Awesomeness and Nickelodeon. “Co-showrunners Oliver Goldstick, Nate Trinrud and Megan Trinrud have an exceptional ability to capture the complexity and nuance of the teen experience, while also keeping audiences on their toes with the unexpected mystery, and we can’t wait to see what’s in store for the students of Split River High next season.”

Throughout the second season, Maddie Nears (List) is still stuck in the afterlife with the knowledge of what happened to her, and must unite her friends in the spectral and living worlds in order to reclaim her stolen life.

In addition to List, Season 2 also stars Kristian Ventura, Spencer MacPherson, Kiara Pichardo, Sarah Yarkin, Nick Pugliese, Rainbow Wedell, Josh Zuckerman, and Milo Manheim. 

Produced by Awesomeness TV, School Spirits was created by Nate Trinrud & Megan Trinrud, who are co-showrunners and executive producers on the series. Oliver Goldstick (Pretty Little Liars, Bridgerton) also serves as co-showrunner and executive producer. List serves as a producer on the series. Production is overseen by Shauna Phelan, Head of Nickelodeon & Awesomeness Live-Action, with Awesomeness Studios’ Executives Brin Lukens and Austin Bedell. The series is distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution.

Seasons one and two are currently available to stream on Paramount+ in the U.S., Canada, UK, Australia, Latin America and Brazil. Season two will premiere in Italy, Germany, France, Germany, Switzerland and Austria at a later date.
