As fans gear up for the Halloween special of Ghosts airing tonight, there’s a buzz of excitement surrounding the show. New images have just been released for the next two episodes, and it appears that the long-awaited musical episode might finally be on its way.
This news comes after a memorable event held back in April, where several cast members visited the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C., for a special screening. The event included a Q&A session, giving fans and attendees a view into the cast’s hopes for the future of the series.
At the event, Collider’s Maggie Lovitt had the chance to speak with stars Danielle Pinnock, Richie Moriarty, Asher Grodman, Rebecca Wisocky, and Román Zaragoza. They toured a curated collection themed around their characters, which sparked various conversations about the show.
One topic that stood out was the cast’s collective desire for a musical episode. This has been a long-standing wish among them, and they openly expressed their enthusiasm for the idea.

In the midst of their discussions, Rebecca Wisocky, who plays the character Hetty, stated, “I mean, we should definitely do a musical episode.” Her comment sparked excitement, with Asher Grodman, who portrays the ghost of Thor, responding eagerly, “I would love a musical episode […] a musical episode would be really fun.”
Their comments indicate a genuine interest and excitement about bringing musical elements to the show. Richie Moriarty, who plays the character Pete, chimed in, saying, “We bring [doing a musical] up to our showrunners all the time.” It seems the cast is quite passionate about this idea, and they are actively pushing for it to become a reality.
The enthusiasm from the cast has not gone unnoticed. Fans have been eagerly anticipating a musical episode as well, with many expressing their support for the concept on social media.
The show’s blend of comedy, heart, and supernatural elements sets the perfect stage for musical numbers, and it’s a format that could enhance the already beloved series. The combination of catchy songs, heartfelt lyrics, and the unique characters of Ghosts could create a memorable viewing experience.
Now, new images and a synopsis for Season 4, Episode 5, titled “A Star Is Dead,” hint that the dream of a musical episode may be coming true sooner than expected. The episode will focus on the Woodstone house playing host to a community theater production. Alberta, the show’s most musically inclined ghost, will be helping Sam (played by Rose McIver) prepare for her audition.
The synopsis reads, “Alberta offers to help Sam prepare for an audition for a community theater production. Also, Sass finds a new reason to interfere in Jay’s dreams.” This sets the stage for musical numbers and performances, making it a highly anticipated episode for fans.
The title “A Star Is Dead” seems to reference the classic film A Star Is Born, which adds another layer of interest to the episode. Additionally, the Season 4 opening credits feature a playbill that closely resembles the one from the musical Anything Goes, suggesting that this episode will have a strong musical influence. Fans are eager to see how this episode will incorporate the music and storytelling elements they have longed for.
For those who are looking forward to this musical adventure, the wait will soon be over. “A Star Is Dead” is set to air on November 14, just a couple of weeks away. Viewers will finally see whether their hopes for a musical episode will be fulfilled and how the characters will engage with the performance.
Before this highly anticipated musical episode, fans can expect to see another exciting storyline in the upcoming episode titled “The Work Retreat.” This episode will feature Trevor, one of the more comedic ghosts, as he finds himself in a tricky situation.
According to the synopsis for Episode 4, Trevor has “catfished his way into a remote financial analyst job,” and he is “in hot water when he’s summoned to a mandatory in-person work retreat.” This scenario promises to bring plenty of laughs, especially as Trevor faces the complications that arise from his antics.
It seems that viewers might also get a glimpse of Utkarsh Ambudkar’s character, Jay, as he gets pulled into cosplaying as Trevor’s least favorite ghost. This could lead to hilarious situations as the characters deal with the fallout from Trevor’s catfishing scheme while also juggling their ghostly responsibilities.
