Ci Hang Ma’s Quinn is one of the new characters introduced in Season 2 of the Paramount+ supernatural teen drama series School Spirits. Bubbly and sociable, Quinn has quickly become a favorite among the show’s fans, who want to know how she died. Here is what we have discovered on the subject.
How did Ci Hang Ma’s Quinn die in School Spirits Season 2?
Quinn first appears in School Spirits Season 2 Episode 2, titled “Field of Screams,” and has since become an important component of the narrative. The series protagonist, Peyton List’s Maddie Nears, encounters Quinn on her quest to regain her corporeal form. As season 2 progresses, Quinn becomes part of Maddie’s spirit-based support group.
The series has shed light on the circumstances surrounding Quinn’s death in School Spirits. Like many of the ghosts in the show, she was a Split River High School student. She was also a member of the school’s marching band. While returning from a regional competition, the bus that was carrying Quinn and the rest of the band slipped on black ice. The driver failed to control the bus, and it toppled. Several band members, including Quinn, died in that accident. Afterward, Quinn became a ghost and is now trapped in the existential limbo.
Since the introduction of the character, the show has meticulously fleshed her out. She is a big fan of the 2000s teen neo-noir mystery drama series Veronica Mars, which features Kristen Bell as the titular character, and it seemed to have influenced her as a character. In an interview with TheWrap, series co-creator Megan Trinrud reflected on Quinn’s love for the show and noted that she would have only seen the first season before her death. “Quinn would have graduated the same year that I graduated high school and we figured Quinn would have only seen the first season of Veronica Mars,” Trinrud said.
