Ghosts season 3 episode 2 recap: Spirits can enter human dreams to communicate

Ghosts season 3 episode 2 premiered on CBS on February 22, 2024, revealing new possibilities for the human and spirit inhabitants of Woodstone Mansion. The American comedy, based on its British counterpart, is helmed by Joe Port and Joe Wiseman. After premiering in October 2021, the series is currently airing its third season, focusing on the tussle and alliance between the two worlds.

Similar to its previous seasons, Ghosts season 3 also promises new angles to coexistence. The first episode revealed Flower to be the ghost who moved on to the afterlife, leaving Thorfinn sad, as he had romantic feelings for her. An owl that visited the mansion’s barn made Thor believe it was Flower reborn. While he wanted to cage it, the others convinced him to free the bird.

Meanwhile, Pete wanted all the cholera ghosts to leave the basement and come upstairs. However, one cholera ghost, Nancy, wanted to come up alone without the others. To dissuade others, she lied about Pete insulting all of them. This angered the other cholera victims, and they remained in the basement.
