Who Killed Maddie In School Spirits?

Someone killed Maddie in a boiler room of Split River High School. Xavier, Claire, and Mr. Anderson are the suspects.

After her demise, she found herself in the afterlife in high school Split River High’s liminal space, where other deceased people have been for 100 years.

Among them, she became the only person who could communicate with the living. While others want to move on, she becomes eager to find the truth about her killer.

As a result, she uses her ability and starts searching for her murderer.

The first sequence focuses on her boyfriend, Xavier, and they suspect him of her murder.

Before her demise, he acted weird and even lied about his cell phone. Everybody suspects him as he didn’t submit the phone to the police and they were a couple for two or three days.

However, Maddie believed in him. She thought he wanted to find something about her.

It turned out he was cheating on Maddie with Claire, and he had the mobile because he sent her the message instead of Claire.

As a result, he took out the cell from her bag to clear the message.

Episode two focused on Claire, Xavier, and Mr. Anderson as the suspect.

After the incident, Xavier’s father suggests staying in his house for some days. As a result, Claire came to visit him, and they started talking about Maddie’s body.

Xavier was scared that someone would find it.

While Rhonda, Wally, and Charley said Claire was a murderer, she saved a girl. So Maddie no longer believed she could kill her.

When Simon and Maddie find the next piece of her phone, Mr. Anderson arrives and asks Simon to stay out of it.

He appeared as another suspect to have been involved in her murder. In the third episode, Maddie and Simon became sure through his phone conversation.
