Just like fashion trends, teen mystery dramas never really go out of style. Take the first season of Paramount+’s School Spirits as an example: a supernatural, YA murder mystery that felt like a worthy successor to the deliciously angsty roadmap laid down by Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Pretty Little Liars, Teen Wolf — plus a smattering of CBS sitcom Ghosts — while charting its own defined course in a way that made it a breath of fresh air in an often overcrowded genre. Here was a whodunit unafraid to pursue the deadly plight of its ghostly protagonist with all the grimness such a topic deserves, but never indulging in enough gloom to prevent the series’ charming, coming-of-age heart from shining through.
