Nickelodeon and Mattel Television are heading back to the halls of Monster High for a second season (40 x 11 minutes) of the CG-animated series that has racked up nearly four million total views to date.
They will also co-produce a limited YouTube series called Monster High Mysteries that’s designed to bridge the gap between seasons one and two of the TV show. This eight-ep, 2D-animated companion project follows along as the cast of ghouls and beasties work to solve the mystery of a missing school trophy. It will be broken up into two parts, with the first four episodes rolling out weekly this fall, and the second batch debuting in early 2023.
Monster High season one (52 x 11 minutes) premiered on Nickelodeon in the US this October, showcasing the high-school drama and hijinks of Clawdeen Wolf, who arrives on campus with a dark secret. The show has since rolled out on Nick UK, and it will also air in Australia later this month on Nickelodeon and streamer Paramount+. More international launches are planned for 2023.
Following the straight-to-streaming launch of live-action musical Monster High: The Movie on Paramount+ in October, Nick promptly ordered a sequel. Production is slated to begin in January, and the film will be delivered in time for Halloween next year.
