As the show has demonstrated since the beginning of the series, nearly every spirit in Ghosts possesses a unique ability. While some were revealed early on, other spirits have discovered theirs due to certain circumstances. Pete, for instance, learned that his power is that he can travel past the ghost boundary, albeit with limitations. He needs to return to the house within a set amount of time not fully disclosed by the show.
While Ghosts’ favorite spirit Pete’s ghost power did seem to be the most useful when first introduced, there is another ghost who has proven to have a much better power, and one that has amazing storytelling potential. Both members of Ghosts season 4’s cast have impressive abilities that carry a great deal of entertainment value, but one is clearly superior to the other.
Pete’s Boundary Powers Has Been Really Cool To See In Ghosts
Pete’s ability to cross over the boundaries opens up a new world for him in the series. It has shown us different worlds beyond the house, and it offered the opportunity to meet new ghosts in other parts of the world. During Ghosts season 4, episode 11, Pete was able to help Thor gain some closure over his own abandonment issues. He traveled to Norway to find the ghosts from Thor’s people to learn why they left him behind all those centuries ago.
Having the limitations has also helped to keep Pete’s boundary power reasonable. He has to come back to the house, so he remains connected to the other spirits and can share about his mini adventures. Something fun for Pete is that he’s able to see sights that he only read about as a travel agent, while also being helpful to Sam and Jay, such as to find out if the critic’s review would be good or bad ahead of time in the most recent episode.
