Apple TV+ has confirmed that Ghostwriter season 3 will premiere on Friday, October 21 while also sharing a trailer for what is sure to be another popular season among the whole family.

In a press release, Apple TV+ confirmed that the new season "will feature an entirely new cast and epic literary adventure when it arrives later this month.

"When a ghost haunts a bookstore and releases fictional characters into the real world, a group of friends works to solve an exciting mystery surrounding the ghost’s unfinished business. While tackling the big mystery, the young heroes embark on six curious adventures with characters inspired by L. Frank Baum's story “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz”; author Pablo Cartaya's “¡Leo! El Magnífico”; Beverly Cleary's novel “The Mouse and the Motorcycle”; Mick Jagger and Keith Richard's song "She's A Rainbow"; E.B. White's book “Charlotte's Web”; and Jewell Parker Rhodes' tale “Bayou Magic,” Apple's season description reads.

This new season stars Princess K. Mapp, Nour Assaf, and Faire McLeod with guest stars also including Randall Park, Jay Baruchel, Jean Smart, and Iain Armitage.

The first two seasons of Ghostwriter are available to stream on Apple TV+ right now and are worth checking out if you're looking for new content to watch with the family. You don't have long to binge those episodes before the October 21 premiere of season three, though!

Apple TV+ is available for $4.99 per month or as part of the Apple One subscription bundle, making it great value for people who already pay for other services like Apple Music and Apple Arcade, for instance.

You can watch Apple TV+ content on all kinds of devices including games consoles and smart televisions, while the Apple TV 4K is perhaps most likely to provide the best Apple TV+ viewing experience.
