Kristian Ventura Breaks Down Simon’s Darkest Arc Yet School Spirits Season 3

from Pop Culture Unplugged w/ Elias · host Elias Giannakopoulos

Kristian Ventura joins Pop Culture Unplugged w/ Elias to dive deep into School Spirits Season 3 and Simon’s most intense storyline yet. In this spoiler-aware conversation, Kristian opens up about playing Simon while trapped in the afterlife, navigating an entirely new cast dynamic, and how Season 3 flips Simon’s journey from saving Maddie to fighting for his own survival. He also discusses the emotional horror of being a ghost, the tension between Simon and Wally, and how this season forces Simon to finally put himself first. Kristian teases what surprised him most while filming, explores Simon’s growth since Season 1, and breaks down why School Spirits does such a powerful job humanizing its villains without asking the audience to forgive them. If you’re watching School Spirits Season 3, this interview gives deeper insight into Simon’s mindset, the mystery beneath Split River High, and why this chapter may be the show’s most emotionally intense yet.   Watch the full interview on YouTube: https://youtu.be/yYNk8ZWnW7s For more exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes content, subscribe to Pop Culture Unplugged w/ Elias on YouTube: Subscribe here Got a burning question or a topic suggestion?
