This article discusses the possibility of 28 Days Haunted Season 2 and whether 28 Days Haunted has been renewed or canceled. 


Just in time for Halloween, 28 Days Haunted is taking the streaming world by storm. Why? Well, it’s pretty evenly split at the moment between people who think it’s ridiculous and hilarious and those who have totally bought into the whole ghost-hunting thing. Either way, it’s entertainment, isn’t it? Unless you take it too seriously, but if you’re one of those people you ought to be more worried about the ghoul standing behind you right now.

Only joking, obviously. But wherever you stand on issues of the otherworldly, it’s inarguable that 28 Days Haunted has been a mega-hit. Mega-hits generate all kinds of attention on social media, attract all kinds of eyeballs, and make Netflix bucketloads of cash. And you know what that means — more seasons!

So, just in case you’re wondering, here’s everything we know.

Has 28 Days Haunted been renewed or canceled?

Status: TBC

At the moment there hasn’t been official confirmation either way. But that’s totally normal — Netflix like to take a show’s temperature before they diagnose it with anything, and 28 Days Haunted is currently running a fever. At this rate, it’ll shoot to the top of Netflix Top 10, dominate the conversation for a week or two, and then provide a guaranteed hit for next Halloween. We’re talking, after all, about the streamer that commissioned not one, not two, but three seasons of Haunted, which is absolutely dreadful trash, and even a spin-off of that show in Haunted: Latin America.

28 Days Haunted has another advantage in that it’s related to the theories of Ed and Lorraine Warren, and there’s an entire film franchise based on their exploits that is somehow still ticking despite it only having produced, like, one good movie. So, you can’t understate the popularity of those two, who lest we forget are considered charlatans even amongst the ghost-hunting community. Imagine that.

So, take our word for it, 28 Days Haunted will be renewed for a second season sooner rather than later.

What is 28 Days Haunted about?

Here’s the official synopsis:

Three teams spend 28 days in some of the most haunted locations in the United States for an experiment based on the theories of paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren.

What could 28 Days Haunted Season 2 be about?

Let’s be frank — more of the above. While the 28 Days Haunted ending suggests, rather unbelievably, that the 28-day cycle theory has been conclusively proved, it’s always good to show your work. A second season would likely repeat the experiment on the grounds of gathering more data, probably involving different paranormal investigators and famously haunted locations. It’s the kind of premise that you can continue to re-do basically forever, as long as there are locations that people claim are haunted — which, needless to say, there always will be.

You can stream 28 Days Haunted Season 1 exclusively on Netflix.
