Released on Paramount+ back in March 2023, School Spirits is getting a second chance in the spotlight now that it’s also streaming on Netflix. That might be confusing for some given the series is a Paramount+ original, but the joint streaming rights come as part of Netflix’s new licensing deal. I, for one, am grateful for the move since I never would have heard of or watched the show if it didn’t appear on my homepage -- and you should watch it as well.
For those who haven’t watched one of the best Paramount+ original TV shows, School Spirits is a supernatural teen drama that centers on Maddie, a teenage girl who finds herself stuck in the afterlife after mysteriously dying. Thankfully, she’s not alone, as she meets several other former high school students who all seem to be stuck in purgatory with her. Unable to remember how she died, the protagonist sets out to uncover the truth and winds up discovering that her best friend who is still alive can still see and talk to her.
