Furthermore, in Ghosts season 4, Sass’ (Román Zaragoza) lack of a love life has been such a recurring joke that Pete promises to find Sass a partner in his travels. Pete finally fulfills his pledge and returns to Woodstone Manor with Joan (Taylor Ortega), a fast-talking broad who died in the 1940s and who also has the ability to travel. Joan establishes some fascinating new rules for Pete’s ability, but I’m worried about the future implications if Pete’s powers continue to grow.
Pete Brings Back Another “Roamer” Ghost Who Explains How Their Power Grows Over Time
Pete Is Limited To Three Days, While Joan Can Roam For A Year
Joan refers to herself as a “roamer,” a fantastic name for the ability. Sass mentions that Pete will start to disappear after only a few days, and he asks Joan how long she can stay in town. Joan shares that the longer a ghost roams, the more they build a tolerance to being away from their anchor property. She also used to be limited to a few days, but after 80 years of practice, she can now roam without worry for up to a year.
Since every ghost power in CBS’ Ghosts is unique, it’s not clear whether Pete will also be able to build a tolerance. Currently, Pete says he can leave Woodstone Manor for about three days before his spirit starts to fade. Sass is worried about Joan staying for too long, but if Pete can build up his roaming muscles, I’m worried that he will be gone more than we’d want.

Pete has been Ghost season 4’s favorite spirit, with him being at the center of many important storylines, like “Ghostfellas,” “A Very Arondekar Christmas Part 2,” and “Thorapy 2: Abandonment Issues.” While I’m glad Ghosts is finally setting some parameters for Pete’s powers, I’m worried that if he becomes as powerful as Joan, the series might have an excuse to have Pete gone for longer chunks of time.
