Season two of CBS’s popular half-hour comedy Ghosts ended on a cliffhanger that left fans speculating as to the identity of the ghost who has moved on. Sam watched (and described to Jay) from the driveway of the Woodstone Mansion Bed & Breakfast as one of the ghosts got “sucked off” – the unfortunate term used by the dearly departed to indicate one has finally left Earth and is a ghost no more.
The teaser for season three episode one, “The Owl,” gives nothing away as it shows Sam searching the house, with Jay trying to help out before remembering he can’t see ghosts. CBS’s official description of the season three premiere airing on February 15, 2024 at 8:30pm ET/PT also doesn’t reveal any specifics:
“Sam, Jay, and the remaining ghosts unravel the mystery of which ghost passed into the afterlife. Also, Sam and Jay must relocate an owl in order to do construction on the barn to turn it into Jay’s restaurant.”
The network’s keeping photos released to promote the episode to a minimum, with only three episode one stills available prior to the show’s return. The three photos just feature Rose McIver, Utkarsh Ambudkar, and Tristan D. Lalla, who guest stars as Mark the construction worker.
Fan chatter has Isaac’s boyfriend, Nigel Chessum (played by John Hartman), the odds-on favorite to be the ghost exiting the series. Isaac and Nigel finally reached a pivotal point in their relationship at the end of season two, which might have led to Nigel achieving happiness, fulfilling everything he had left to do on earth, and moving on.
Other possibilities include one of the basement ghosts, the headless Crash (played by Alex Boniello), or Stephanie the teenager (played by Odessa A’zion). However, we weren’t shown any significant event that would have led to anyone other than Nigel experiencing a life/death-changing moment.
Of course, it could be one of the main deceased residents of Woodstone, but we’re only in season three and fans have grown attached to the quirky but lovable ensemble. Hopefully, when season three finally arrives we won’t be forced to mourn the loss of Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones), Pete (Richie Moriarty), Alberta (Danielle Pinnock), Trevor (Asher Grodman), Sasappis (Román Zaragoza), Flower (Sheila Carrasco), Hetty (Rebecca Wisocky), or Thorfinn (Devan Chandler Long).
