Los Angeles, United States- Milo Manheim returns as Wally Clark in the third season of the Paramount+ supernatural teen drama School Spirits, which premiered January 28, 2026 with the first three episodes now streaming, according to Paramount+ and multiple industry reports. Manheim, known for his breakout role in Zombies and ongoing work in television and film, discussed his character’s fate in the new season while cast members and creators outline evolving storylines.
School Spirits Season 3 continues the story of Maddie Nears (Peyton List) after her return to life and the supernatural complications at Split River High. Manheim’s Wally, a ghost who has been romantically linked with Maddie, grapples with “unfinished business” at the school rather than moving on to the afterlife, an arc the actor explained in interviews tied to the new season’s launch.
Series creators Megan and Nate Trinrud developed School Spirits from their graphic novel, and Paramount+ confirmed that Season 3 launched with three episodes — “It’s a Wonderful Afterlife,” “Mean Ghouls,” and “The Halls Have Eyes” — with five additional episodes to follow weekly through March 4, 2026.
Production sources and cast interviews highlight expanded plotlines in the new season that push the narrative deeper into the mysteries haunting Split River High. While Maddie confronts harrowing visions and responsibilities bridging the living and the spirit world, other characters such as Simon (Kristian Ventura) remain caught in limbo, searching for answers about the school’s dark past.
Casting for Season 3 includes returning ensemble members Nick Pugliese, Kiara Pichardo, Spencer MacPherson and Rainbow Wedell, with new additions like Jennifer Tilly portraying the enigmatic superintendent Dr. Deborah Hunter-Price. Manheim’s continued presence underscores the story’s focus on the interplay between life, death and unresolved connections among the characters.
Fans tuning in to Paramount+ have responded to the premiere’s blend of supernatural mystery and character development, while creators have indicated the season will steadily unravel lingering questions from prior installments.
