Vampire Academy is not returning for a second season. Attempts to find a new home for the cancelled Peacock series have failed, per the series’ showrunner, Marguerite MacIntyre. Co-created by Julie Plec, the series is based on the novels by Richelle Mead.
Sisi Stringer, Daniela Nieves, Kieron Moore, Andre Dae Kim, J. August Richards, Anita-Joy Uwajeh, Mia Mckenna-Bruce, Rhian Blundell, Jonetta Kaiser, and Andrew Liner star in the supernatural drama series. The story follows two women from different classes as they finish their education and prepare to enter vampire society.
MacIntyre said the following about efforts to find a new home for the supernatural series:
“I have been wanting to say this for a very long time. Again, thank you for all of the love for the show. Thanks for your incredible support. Thanks for your sticking with us through a lot of things lately.
I don’t have good news. And, I don’t see any avenue forward, I feel like now is the time to say. I’m sorry about that, but it wasn’t for lack of trying. We went a little silent because there wasn’t a lot we could say. And, we pitched our hearts out, and we tried. We took it as far as we could.
It’s a beautiful show, these are beautiful books, these are beautiful characters. They’ll come back in the world. But, what you guys did, to support us, and loving what we did …
We cared more than anything that the book fans loved what we did, and you guys did, and it meant the world. So, we thank you.
You made it a hit for us. Whatever else happened, it was a hit because you loved it and you supported it and you saw what we were trying to do. It was really meaningful. I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart.”

What do you think? Did you want to see a second season of Vampire Academy? Are you disappointed that the show has been cancelled by Peacock?
Just finished binging this show. It’s such a good show! The actors were great. I was really hoping there was going to be a 2nd season.
Definitely disappointed. The books are amazing and to see it live action would be so cool. The spin and take in this tv series was great it should be renewed somewhere as it is something young adults and regular adults would love.
I am so disappointed that this isn’t getting a 2nd season. The books are incredible and the writers and actors did such a great job. I was hooked. I’ve seen some book adaptations fail miserably but this one was such a success. I was really hoping another network would have picked this up. I think everyone lost with this but it was great while it lasted.
I HATE that they are not bringing back Vampire Academy…. While the bring back endless seasons of slapstick comedy, that you have to be VERY high or lobotomized to watch. PLEASE give us a Season Two ‼️
Let vampire academy season 2 come back to Netflix because we all want to see what happens next.
Good. This show was just awful.
I’ll never understand why some people are happy or root for a show to end. Do you know what you can do? JUST. DON’T. WATCH. Why root for it to be cancelled when other people enjoy it? I’ve never seen this series so I’m talking about any show. It’s very easy to just not watch but if you don’t like it.
I don’t root for shows to be axed or people to lose their jobs, but this show, I don’t know was painful to watch. I really wanted to like it because I was a massive fan of The Vampire Diaries. I gave it like 6 episodes and I just couldn’t watch anymore.
This show was great! Waaayyyy better than the horrible movie version. Maybe you should reread the books because they wrote and cast this perfectly!
I’ve read the series through at least 10 times and no, they definitely didn’t write or cast it perfectly at all.
