With the premiere of Ghosts Season 3 just a month away, fans are buzzing with questions—most notably, which spirit was “sucked off” at the end of Season 2? The CBS comedy left viewers on a dramatic cliffhanger, as Sam (Rose McIver) and Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar) sat in their driveway, illuminated by a mysterious beam of light signaling that one of the spirits might be departing for the afterlife.
In a newly released promo, the show hints that a ghost could indeed be missing when it returns. However, some cast members have offered reassurances about their characters’ fates, painting a clearer picture of who will be back.
Ambudkar and Danielle Pinnock, who portrays Alberta, recently celebrated their ASTRA awards on set in costume, suggesting that the Jazz-age singer will be back to grace Woodstone with her musical talents.
Román Zaragoza, who plays Sasappis, also shared images of himself in costume on social media, confirming his return for Season 3 with the caption “Season 3.”
While other spirit actors have yet to officially confirm their involvement, Asher Grodman (Trevor) and Rebecca Wisocky (Hetty) both shared the Season 3 promo on their social media, hinting at their return as well.
Could the missing spirit be someone outside the core group? Ghosts has always left room for lore expansion. One interesting theory revolves around Sheila Carrasco, who plays the beloved Hippie Flower. Recently, Carrasco welcomed a baby, coinciding with the delayed production of Season 3. This cliffhanger could serve as a narrative device to give her some time off while leaving the door open for her eventual return.
Carrasco’s pregnancy during the filming of Season 2 earlier this year might have allowed the writers to plan a suitable explanation for her temporary absence. Ambudkar also noted in his acceptance speech for the ASTRA award that he forgot to mention Carrasco, which some speculate could hint at her absence during filming.
However, in a positive sign, Carrasco recently shared key art featuring herself and the Ghosts cast on social media, teasing, “Season 3 Feb 15. Let’s. GHOSTS!✌✌✌.”
What do you think? Will the cliffhanger lead to a surprise absence, or is it all just speculation? Share your thoughts in the comments, and stay tuned for more updates on Ghosts as we gear up for the Season 3 premiere!
