And then her roommate, Betty, mysteriously disappears after a party. A cryptic note leads Laura to believe that this isn't just a case of partying too hard. Determined to find Betty, Laura summons her inner Veronica Mars and starts her own investigation. Not at all complicating things, a mysterious girl, Carmilla Karnstein, bursts through the door, and introduces herself as Laura's new roommate. Who is Carmilla, what happened to Betty, and what's behind the strange events at Silas University? ### Season 2 (36 Episodes) Laura and her friends find themselves faced with even greater stakes (no pun intended) at Silas University after the mystery of the missing girls is solved. Having saved her roommate and a significant portion of the student body, Laura pretty much figures good has triumphed, until Silas erupts into total chaos. Come hell or Hogwarts, Laura and her friends are determined to unite the warring factions of the University, reinstate classes and traditions, and turn Silas into the welcoming bastion of inclusion and knowledge it was always meant to be. At least that's the plan! But nothing ever goes as planned - the past and future are about to collide in unimaginable ways, and relationships and friendships will be put to the ultimate test. If love has its sacrifices, just how far will they go? ### Season 0 (12 Episodes) Following the dramatic events of the Season II finale, Laura and Carmilla are stuck in the basement of the ominous Library of Silas University. Of course, the only logical thing to do is to have a Hollstein movie night. How convenient that Laura literally happens to fall upon some old VHS tapes that might reveal some mysterious crime - Laura's curiosity gets the best of her and they're going back into the ancient year of 2012. ### Season 3 (36 Episodes) Laura, Carmilla and LaFontaine are still hiding out in the Library of Silas University from The Dean, who is still in the possession of Perry's body and who is relishing in her newfound power and gloating glory. You know how Evil is - big on the rhetoric. Affected by the traumatic past events, Laura is disillusioned and fearful to try anything that might hurt her and her friends, while Carmilla and LaFontaine find common ground in their quest to stop The Dean once and for all. ## Filler vs. Essential Episode Classifier - **Total Tracked Episodes**: 120 - **Crucial Mytharc Episodes**: 10 (8%) - **Character Core Episodes**: 110 (92%) - **Side Quest / Filler Episodes**: 0 (0%) ## Creative Credits - **Created by**: Jordan Hall, Jay Bennett, Steph Ouaknine - **Networks / Studios**: YouTube ## Key Cast Continuity - **Elise Bauman** as *Laura Eileen Hollis* - **Natasha Negovanlis** as *Carmilla "Carm" Karnstein* - **Annie Briggs** as *Lola "Perr" Perry / Lilita Morgan (The Dean)* - **Kaitlyn Alexander** as *S.
