Paramount+ is bringing School Spirits back for season four, with many of its original cast members alongside four new guest stars. According to Deadline, Milo Manheim (Zombies, Journey to Bethlehem) and Jennifer Tilly (Bride of Chucky, Bound) will reprise their roles. At the same time, Maria Dizzia (The Neighbors’ Window, Christmas Eve in Miller’s Point) has been promoted to series regular.
Fans began to question Manheim’s absence after he was left out of the early promotional material and behind-the-scenes photos. According to Deadline, “He was filming Tangled overseas in Spain, causing production timelines to clash, but rest assured, he’s back.”
Additionally, Christian Weissman (Crushed, When The Starlight Ends), Clara Alexandrova (Summer’s Last Resort, Danger in the Dorm), Katharine Isabelle (Yaga, Junction Row), and Briana Buckmaster (Exes, The Irrational) will be featured as guest stars for the fourth season.
In Season three of School Spirits, Maddie, played by Peyton List (Jessie, Cobra Kai), and her friends saved Split River High from being destroyed. Although they managed to stop the school’s destruction, Van Heidt got his revenge by taking control of Maddie’s mother, Sandra, played by Dizzia. The season concludes with a threatening look from Sandra and Maddie having to deal with the dangerous consequences.
Weissman will play Emmett. Emmett is charismatic and kind, but poses as a “paranormal vlogger” who actually creates fake videos using high-tech methods.
Alex will play Izzy. Izzy is a defiant girl who attends a nearby high school. She works as a cashier at a local record store.
Isabelle will play Tonya Terravina. Tonya is not new to Split River. However, she is a new character who mysteriously comes into the picture. Tonya is knowledgeable, clever, and highly independent. Her introduction to the series sheds new light on the mysteries of their supernatural world.
