Put away the Halloween decorations and get ready for a different kind of holiday mystery. Hallmark‘s Mistletoe Murders is back for Season 3, bringing Sarah Drew and Peter Mooney together for another round of Christmas-themed whodunits. Because apparently, even in the most wonderful time of the year, there’s still a murder to solve.

The series has found a new audience since its first two seasons arrived on Netflix on Nov. 1, quickly becoming one of the streamer’s most popular shows. However, Season 3 won’t be available to stream on Netflix when it premieres.

So when does Season 3 premiere, where can you watch it, and when will it be on Netflix? Here’s everything to know about Mistletoe Murders Season 3.

What Is Mistletoe Murders About?

Based on Ken Cuperus’ Audible Original, Mistletoe Murders is a Hallmark mystery series starring Sarah Drew (Grey’s Anatomy) as Emily Lane. She owns Under the Mistletoe, a Christmas-themed gift shop in the small town of Fletcher’s Grove, New York. Emily may seem friendly and approachable, but she has a mysterious past she’s trying to keep hidden. And when a string of local murders brings out her sleuthing skills, that past threatens to catch up with her.

As she investigates, Emily teams up with Detective Sam Wilner (Peter Mooney), a local police officer who grows more and more curious about her secrets. The two develop a connection, but their relationship is complicated by everything Emily has yet to reveal.

And if you’re a Good Witch fan, there’s a pleasantly familiar face joining the cast this season. Catherine Bell will guest-star in the first two episodes of Season 3, playing the wife of a Christmas chairman. But according to showrunner Ken Cuperus, her character may have a few secrets of her own.

When Does Mistletoe Murders Season 3 Come Out?

Mistletoe Murders Season 3 premieres Thursday, November 5, at 8 p.m. ET on Hallmark Channel. New episodes will air weekly on Thursdays through Dec. 10.

When Does Mistletoe Murders Season 3 Come to Netflix?

Although the first two seasons of Mistletoe Murders recently arrived on Netflix, the streamer has not confirmed a release date for the upcoming season.

However, there may be a Netflix release down the line. The first two seasons arrived on the platform roughly a year after the series made its Hallmark debut in 2025. If Season 3 follows the same timeline, it could land on Netflix in time for the 2027 holiday season.
