Every day is a surprise at Seabrook High—whether you're a cheerleader, a zombie, a werewolf, or even a vampire! "ZOMBIES: The Re-Animated Series" invites us into the daily lives of Zed, Addison, Eliza, Willa and the entire Seabrook crew. This gang may have figured out each other, but they haven't quite figured out how to survive high school. Get ready for more musical fun and new friends as Seabrook becomes the #1 destination for all kinds of mythical monsters looking for a fresh start. And this means some pretty wild adventures—from the cafeteria to the football field—because sometimes the scariest thing you have to face is high school.

==Production==
In June 2022, during the Annecy Film Festival, it was reported that an animated series, titled Zombies: The Re-animated Series, was being developed by Disney Television Animation for Disney+ and Disney Channel. Descendants: Wicked World creator and director Aliki Theofilopoulos Grafft and Amphibia story editor Jack Ferriolo would be serving as creators and showrunners. The duo would also executive-produce the series alongside Gary Marsh and the films' writers Joseph Russo and David Light. The original cast would also be reprising their roles.
Development came to Ferriolo and Aliki with the idea of turning the Zombies movie franchise into an animated show. They loved the idea of working on a high school show because of the storytelling opportunities inherent within that setting. This was also the first project Aliki and Ferriolo worked on together. The animation was produced at Atomic Cartoons in Canada. It was a CG animated show storyboarded in Storyboard Pro.
It was reported in September 2024 that while season two is underway, the original amount of episodes had been halved. The reason for this was due to Disney wanting to switch to short form storytelling for future shows. Several of Atomic Cartoons' staff had also been laid off during this time.
