School Spirits Season 3 will feature the return of Peyton List as Maddie Nears, a high school student who mysteriously died and joined her high school's afterlife club. The show followed her journey as she began an investigation to catch her killer.
Recurring cast members for Season 3 include Kristian Ventura as Simon Elroy, Maddie's best friend; Milo Manheim as Wally; Spencer MacPherson as Xavier Baxter; Sarah Yarkin as Rhonda; Kiara Pichardo as Nicole Herrera; Josh Zuckerman as Mr. Martin; Nick Pugliese as Charley; and Rainbow Wedell as Claire Zomer.
In addition to these returning stars, School Spirits Season 3 has also added three new cast members as recurring characters. These include Jennifer Tilley (Scruff, Chucky) as Dr. Deborah Hunter-Price, Ari Dalbert (Inhumans) as Kyle, and Erika Swayze (Davey & Jonesie's Locker) as Livia.
Deadline also reported that Chi Hang Ma (Quinn) and Miles Elliot (Yuri), who appeared as minor characters in Season 2, are promoted as series regulars for the upcoming season.
What can you expect from School Spirits Season 3?

School Spirits Season 3 will have a lot of questions to answer from the Season 2 finale, which saw Maddie finally regain control of her body. Janet also confronted Mr. Martin, who revealed the extremity of his experiments and how they affected her life.
In a shocking sequence, Mr. Martin revealed that he wanted Janet dead, which is why he detached the hose in the lab to create a gas leak. However, he did change his mind, but it was simply too late, and Janet's flint torches testing had already created an explosion.
The Season 2 finale ended on an exciting cliffhanger for Wally, where he was at the exit door of his scar, contemplating crossing. School Spirits Season 3 will finally reveal his decision, as Nate Trinrud teased in an interview with TV Line:
''It's big decision and it’s emotional. But when you get to that place where you feel like you’ve had a breakthrough or you’ve healed a part of yourself … just because you do that, it doesn’t mean that you’re ready to go.”
