It was late in the evening, they were going down the hallways after finishing with their pottery lab.

They've always been creative, since young age.

It wasn't new to people that they liked doing things like diy, painting or crafting and pottery was sure a new and fresh challenge for them.

They were talking with a friend, explaining how they would color the mugs they made the next day, the sun was slowly fading away behind the buildings around the school.

They knew there was football practice in the field that day.

The fresh air hit their face as they went out of the main door.

They breathed in, going straight to the field, knowing they had to wait a bit more for their neighbor to finish with his practice.

Wally was running in the fake green grass, along with other guys, all tall and muscular like him, but not quite as pretty.

His hair were moving slowly because of the slight wind, black locks falling on his forehead covered in sweat.

After a bit they finished, y/n still sitting on the benches, waiting for him while swinging their feet.

"Oh, you're already here...sorry I was late but you have to wait a bit more" he said.

"I know, go change, I'll wait for you here" they said, a little smile on their face.

Wally ran to the locker rooms, he did a quick shower, then changed and came back after maybe 15 minutes.

Y/n was sitting where he left them, a book in hand, the lights that adorned the field hitting on their figure.

"Now, I am ready" he laughed, adjusting his big bag on his shoulder "Let's go".

As they stood up, Wally couldn't not notice they weren't wearing any hoodie or jacket.

It wasn't very cold, but the fresh air wasn't like summer at all.

They walked together through the parking lot.

They were neighbors since 8th grade, always seeing each other but becoming friends in 10th, the houses were very close to school so every morning they walked to school together.

"Had a nice day?" he asked, while putting his hands in his jacket's pockets.

They nodded "Not bad I should say...I made a mug" a smile.

"Oh cool, a mug?" he raised a brow "Damn, couldn't imagine what horrendous thing could came out if I did something like that" he laughed.

"It isn't difficult at all but...yeah I agree"

Wally chuckled, putting a hand on his forehead and gasping "Oh no, you think of me so low?" he said.

"Maybe" they said, swinging while walking "It's fun, actually...tomorrow we're coloring them...wanted to make it blue and white with...your number on it" they said.

They've been thinking of that since a few days.

Wally was always gentle and kind, he always offered them to go to his house so they felt like they should give him something in exchange and a gift was a perfect choice.

Nothing better than something handmade.

Wally's gaze softened "You...you serious?" he said, looking at them in disbelief.

"Yeah, wanted to make you a gift"

"You're...kind...too kind...thank you" he was already tasting all the good coffee he could've drink in that perfect cup.

The walk went on through some discourse about the fact that one of their teachers believed aliens would take on the world and the possibility of that.

Y/n crossed their arms, caressing them.

"Hey, you cold?" Wally asked, looking at them worried.

They shook their head "No...it's fine, just the wind hitting my skin makes me feel a bit cold, but when it stops it's fine".

Wally nodded, taking off his letterman jacket, y/n shaking their head "No Wally you don't have t-" but the jacket was already placed on their shoulders.

It was warm from Wally's body heat, soft on the sleeves.

They blushed.

They knew what that meant in 'school lenguage'.

They tried to not think about that.

When at their door, they said bye to each other to the next day.

"Your-"

"Keep it"

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, you'll give it to me tomorrow okay?"

They blushed even more, nodding "Okay...see you tomorrow...don't be late again" a chuckle.

"Promise, I'll make you breakfast to eat while we go to school" he winked, turning and crossing the road to go to his house.

He was smiling hard, the sight of you drowning in his jacket still in his mind.

He knew he would have your smell all on it the next day, exactly while you were holding the clothing to your chest, smiling and sniffing it, thinking about Wally.

The Doors Weren’t the Afterlife: The School Spirits Finale Just Opened a Second Limbo

Okay… we need to talk about the finale of School Spirits.

Because honestly?

What did we just witness.

This show keeps getting better in a way that reminds me of the first time I watched Being Human. That same eerie balance between supernatural mythology and emotional storytelling.

And what impresses me the most is how carefully the series treats the paranormal framework behind its story.

Yes, it’s still television — obviously some things are dramatized to serve the narrative. But the core concepts about energy, liminal spaces, and the veil between worlds are surprisingly aligned with real-world paranormal theories.

For someone like me who follows ghost-hunting research quite closely, that level of care is genuinely impressive.

When a Show Isn’t Writing for Fan Service

One thing that becomes very obvious watching School Spirits is the difference between writing driven by story and writing influenced by fandom pressure.

School Spirits has eight episodes per season.

But every single episode matters.

The narrative is tight. Nothing feels random. The mythology unfolds slowly but deliberately, and the writers clearly know where they’re going.

There’s no pandering, no shortcuts, no last-minute fan service.

Compare that to some mainstream network shows where audience expectations sometimes start steering the ship, and the difference becomes even more striking.

Ironically, I’m almost glad School Spirits isn’t massively mainstream yet.

Because it allows the writers to keep building their world exactly the way they want.

The Finale’s Biggest Twist: The Doors Aren’t the End

For the longest time, we assumed the mysterious doors were the way out.

The final step.

The moment where the trapped spirits finally move on.

But the finale completely flips that assumption.

Instead of leading to the “afterlife,” the doors appear to lead into another liminal space.

A second waiting room.

Another layer.

Which means the place where the ghosts were trapped before might already have been just the first level of something much larger.

And that’s where the show introduces one of the most fascinating concepts of the finale.

The Ley Lines Theory

Janet refers to the phenomenon as Ley Lines.

If you’re familiar with paranormal or esoteric theories, you probably recognized that term immediately.

Ley Lines were first popularized in 1921 by Alfred Watkins. Originally he theorized they were ancient pathways connecting landmarks used for navigation.

But over time, the concept evolved into something much more mystical.

Many researchers now believe Ley Lines are energy currents that run through the Earth, connecting powerful energetic locations across the planet.

Think of them as the energetic circulatory system of the Earth.

Some famous examples connect sacred or historically powerful locations — places that seem to share unusual energetic patterns.

And if School Spirits is using this concept, it changes everything about how their afterlife system works.

The Veil Between Worlds

In paranormal theory, increased energy activity along Ley Lines can thin the veil between dimensions.

Which means the barrier between the living and the dead becomes weaker.

This actually mirrors something many paranormal investigators claim to observe: that communication phenomena appear stronger now than decades ago.

School Spirits seems to be playing with that same idea.

The boundary that once trapped the spirits inside the school has now broken.

They can leave.

They can move.

And that suggests the Ley Lines are acting as corridors between different states of existence.

Not the final destination.

Just another passage.

The Forest Limbo

The forest sequence might be the most important clue in the entire finale.

Across the river, we see peaceful figures — including Simon’s mother and the pastor with the children.

They look calm.

They look… complete.

But the ghosts cannot reach them.

Dawnn warns that if you cross the river, you return.

At first I assumed that meant returning to the school world.

But now I think something more complex is happening.

Crossing the river may send a spirit back to the entry point of the Ley Line network.

Which explains why Dawnn says it’s incredibly difficult for spirits to find each other there.

The forest isn’t the afterlife.

It’s another liminal maze.

A transitional corridor.

And somewhere beyond that river might be the real “beyond.”

The Possession Twist

Then the finale drops another bombshell.

Van Aight is now inside Maddie’s mother’s body.

Which raises an enormous question:

Where is Maddie’s mother’s spirit?

The most logical explanation is the hospital scene.

If the possession happened there, then her spirit might now be trapped exactly the way Maddie once was.

And if that’s the case, there’s one very interesting implication.

Xavier might be able to see her.

The New Ghost Team in the Forest

Right now, the forest limbo contains:

Dawn

Janet

Wally

Maddie’s father

That combination alone suggests the next season could explore a completely new supernatural layer.

The show already expanded its mythology this season with the introduction of the Forgotten, and the explanation that if the place of death disappears, the door may never appear.

But the finale suggests we’re only scratching the surface of how this system works.

Are We Heading Toward the Final Act?

The biggest narrative shift is Van Aight.

This season introduced him as a mysterious figure pursuing his own goals.

But now?

Those goals are gone.

The protagonists ruined his plans.

Which means his motivation has shifted.

From ambition…

to revenge.

And in storytelling terms, that usually signals something important.

When the central villain moves from long-term plotting to personal conflict, the story is often approaching its endgame.

That’s why I suspect Season 4 might be the beginning of the final arc.

Maybe the last season.

At most, I could see the show stretching to a fifth.

But the story already feels like it’s heading toward its ultimate confrontation.

A Dark Possibility for Maddie

And here’s the theory that keeps haunting me.

The most logical ending might actually be tragic.

What if Maddie dies?

Not in a meaningless way — but as the final step in resolving the entire liminal system the show has built.

It would be heartbreaking.

But narratively?

It would make sense.

More Questions Than Answers

The finale didn’t just close a chapter.

It exploded the mythology.

Ley Lines. Multiple limbos. Possession. The forest maze.

We now have more questions than ever.

And honestly?

I love that.

Because if this finale proved anything, it’s that School Spirits is playing a much bigger game than we originally thought.

Your Turn

So now I’m curious.

What are your theories about the School Spirits finale?

What do you think the forest really is?

Wally Clark x OC

Summary: Wally never expected for fall for a living student- until the day he heard Ellie say his name. He found himself watching her more and more. Lingering in the music room as she played piano, looking for her in the halls, wishing he could talk to her. But no matter how much he liked her, he knew they would never meet. Unless…

Warnings: 18+ only, mentions of death/suicide of a loved one, emotional abuse, mentions of sex, sexual assault, drugs, canon divergence, eventually maybe smut?
