About a week ago, Chicago Fire showrunner Andrea Newman spoke of the new season in detail, depicting it as haunted even though initially, the team saw it as “Lucky 13 or Spooky 13.” Speaking of haunted, Season 13 teases an air of shadows from the past hanging around and visiting characters, which Newman elaborated on, saying:
“It’s the shadow of Boden hanging over the firehouse, and Severide has the shadow of Benny [his father] always hanging over him. Finding this brother in this relationship with half-brother Jack Damon really reminds us of that shadow. We’ve got Carver with the shadows of his past. Now, Cruz is going to be haunted by a ghost from his past in the season, too. So, we have a lot of ghostly, spooky happenings going on this year.”
Chicago Fire Season 13, Episode 3 will air on Wednesday, October 9 on NBC. Past seasons are streaming on Peacock.
