Fans of the supernatural comedy Ghosts will be able to channel their inner Trevor by communicating with a haunted mirror, courtesy of CBS. Today CBS unveiled a Victorian-style mirror that enables fans to communicate with the spirits featured on the CBS Original series. The haunted mirror will be available in both physical and digital form and is inspired by Trevor’s supernatural power to connect with the “livings” in the mansion by writing messages on a foggy bathroom mirror. The temporary installation of the mirror is a fun and interactive marketing event for the show’s upcoming Halloween special that airs on October 27.The CBS Ghosts-branded mirror is installed on Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica, California, and will be accessible to fans between 3:00-8:00 PM on October 27. When fans approach the mirror, the mirror quickly fogs up and the words “Ask Me Anything” materialize on the surface. Los Angeles area “livings” can ask questions and the answer to which will appear in the mirror.If you aren’t located in Santa Monica, but still want to participate, don’t worry! CBS has also launched a digital version of the mirror on Twitter and Instagram. The format is slightly different, however, as users have to message a question and will receive a reply to their questions with a foggy mirror message in the form of a GIF. Fans can use #AskGhosts in order to join in on the spooky, inquisitive fun.ghosts-rose-mciver-utkarsh-ambudkar-02
