What is School Spirits Season 3 About?
After a shocking finale for season 2, Maddie is back for another puzzle.
The official logline states that Maddie “must face the dangerous mystery behind Split River High School in order to save her best friend who might be lost forever.” You might remember that it is Maddie’s best friend, Simon, who has found himself in spiritual limbo.
When asked about Simon’s current position in an interview with TVLine, executive producer Oliver Goldstick said:
“Simon has had access to a world that other people have not. He’s aware of another reality besides the one we all see on a daily basis. So we felt like, if you spent this much time trying to save somebody else and you had immersed yourself so deeply into that world, could you be sucked into the vortex of that until you were trapped as well?”
We cannot wait to see where this plotline takes us in School Spirits season 3.
