I'm so glad that I have kept my Paramount Plus subscription even though I mostly just watch Star Trek on it, this show is so addicting and that cliffhanger has been driving me nuts! This season feels like it might be a bit creepier, especially with Janet running around, who is clearly a pretty messed up ghost. Trying to run off with Maddie's body is awful but dying as a teenager after having a pretty lousy life before must really suck. 

So when Xavier died for a second did he see a bunch of ghosts or some kind of time loop? Or both? Does this mean he might be able to see ghosts? 

Poor Simon, I really don't blame him for thinking he's lost it, this is a whole lot, its somehow even weirder than just ghosts. 

Has Mr. Martin not only been keeping the ghosts in limbo, but is actually involved in their deaths? I have always thought it as wild how many students died at this one, not super large high school, and he's the oldest ghost we've met, is he deliberately causing these deaths in these locations for some reason? 

No matter what happens, I feel like the show will have a bittersweet ending, I guess the best case scenario is Maddie getting her body back and going back to her life while the rest of the ghosts move on, but no matter what she either loses her life or loses her friends and her cute romance with Wally.

I know - I keep wondering that, if she gets her body back, will she still be able to see the ghosts? Or at least the core ghosts she's got an emotional attachment to?

I wish they would bring back the theater ghost. She might be willing to engage with the others.
