Mattel and Nickelodeon today announced that the second season of the hit animated series Monster High will premiere on Monday, March 11 at 2 p.m. (ET/PT) on Nickelodeon. All-new episodes featuring original and legacy characters alike will continue to debut weekly on Nickelodeon.
In the half-hour season premiere, “Rule School,” Clawdeen finds that balancing school with her new role as Were-Ruler is way more challenging than she thought. As she faces her first big task as Were-Ruler, Clawdeen makes a decision that will shake up the were-world.
Synopsis: It’s a new semester in the 20-episode second season. The boo crew find themselves navigating a variety of monstrous situations, including a vacation at Scare-adise Resort that takes a mysterious turn, a mythological showdown during a music festival, a magic-powered competitive game night, and more. Throughout the all-new season, monster mayhem is always on the menu at Monster High. With each pop quiz the undead life throws their way, the fan-favorite monsters learn that they have what it takes to change the world.
From Mattel and Nickelodeon, the reimagined Monster High follows the teenage children of legendary monsters — Clawdeen Wolf, Draculaura, Frankie Stein, Deuce Gorgon — and friends as they discover who they are in the one place they all belong: Monster High.
