Fall TV Preview 2025: Ghosts
Thursday, Oct. 16, at 8:30/7:30c (CBS)
Remember that fleeting mention of the mummy that resides in Woodstone Mansion? The one that Hetty used to own when she was alive?
He’s about to take center stage when the supernatural comedy returns for Season 5.
In this year’s Halloween edition (which airs Thursday, Oct. 30), Jay and Sam will learn all the gory details about this previously unknown resident’s past.
“We meet the ghost that inhabits that mummy,” co-showrunner and executive producer Joe Port teases.
“He’s an ancient Egyptian fellow and he has an axe to grind against the people who brought his mummy here, namely the Woodstones.”
And that’s not the only presence from the mansion’s past that’ll make a return visit. As it turns out, we haven’t seen the last of Chris, the ghost of the skydiving stripper who was previously hired to work Isaac’s bachelor party.
“Isaac told Nigel that he got sucked off even though Chris chose to leave after having a moment with Nigel,” adds co-showrunner/EP Joe Wiseman, “and Nigel mentioned in that episode, ‘Oh, we can bring him back at Halloween,’ so that’s going to come back to roost.”
BONUS SPOILER!:
Speaking of holidays, the showrunners plan on throwing another St. Hetty’s Day extravaganza, since we now know the former baroness can be seen by the living on St. Patrick’s Day.
"Ghosts" also will celebrate Thanksgiving this year with a Sam and Pete roadtrip episode that’s “an homage to Planes, Trains and Automobiles,” teases Wiseman.
Adds Port: “That’s our favorite Thanksgiving movie from when we were little.”
