Secrets of Sulphur Springs

Disney Channel will kick off 2022 with an adventure-filled season two premiere event for Secrets of Sulphur Springs. On Friday, January 14, beginning at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT, viewers will enjoy two back-to-back episodes of the popular time-travel adventure series centered around the mysterious Tremont Hotel, with new episodes every Friday on Disney Channel. An initial batch of episodes will also be rolled out on Disney+ and the MVPD VOD platforms around the linear launch. In season two of Secrets of Sulphur Springs, Griffin and Harper unravel new mysteries about The Tremont, and Harper follows the real ghost back to the 1930s to learn more about her family's deep-seated connection to the hotel. When the power source to the time machine is unintentionally taken and the portal disappears, Harper becomes trapped in the past with her great-uncle Sam and great-great-grandfather Elijah, while her great-grandmother Daisy is left to navigate the present. With help from Savannah from her new life in 1962, the friends attempt to fix the time machine and bring back the portal before it's too late and their lives are forever changed.
