News Eerie Prep Eerie Elementary Books Will Transform Into the Aged-Up Eerie Prep Series for Disney+ Jack Chabert’s book series is getting aged up for TV. By Molly Templeton | Published on September 9, 2025 Image: Gareth Gatrell/NETFLIX Comment 0 Share New Share Image: Gareth Gatrell/NETFLIX The Eerie Elementary books—written by Max Brallier under the pen name Jack Chabert—are getting an aged-up adaptation. Deadline has the news that Eerie Prep has a pilot order from Disney Branded Television. If it gets the green light, the series will land on Disney+ and the Disney Channel. But there will be some changes. The Eerie Elementary books are early chapter books for elementary school readers; they focus on a third-grade boy named Sam Graves, who discovers that his school is anything but ordinary. Eerie Prep, as the title suggests, is about an older kid—and for the series, Sam Graves is a girl. She’ll be played by Madalen Mills, of Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey (pictured above) and The Tiger Rising. She’ll be joined in the pilot by Niko Ceci (I Woke Up a Vampire), Charlie Ellis, Madison Rojas (Chicago Med), Michaela Russell (WandaVision), and Alex Bar; Hanna Huffman (Heretic) and Felicia Day (The Magicians) guest star. The plot doesn’t seem to follow the story of the first Eerie Elementary book, but instead focuses on Sam’s investigation of her sister’s disappearance from school. She’ll put together “a team of uniquely skilled students to uncover the truth behind a series of strange, supernatural occurrences—and to confront whoever, or whatever, is behind the disappearance.” M. Raven Metzner (Iron Fist) is showrunner for the pilot, which is written by David H. Steinberg (Kindergarten Cop 2) and Keetgi Kogan (No Good Nick) and directed by Eric Dean Seaton (Batwoman, Legends of Tomorrow).[end-mark] The post Eerie Elementary Books Will Transform Into the Aged-Up <i>Eerie Prep</i> Series for Disney+ appeared first on Reactor.
