Ghosts‘ “Halloween 4: The Witch” hilariously homages Bridgerton whereas pulling our characters by way of the largest scare since Carol’s dying in Season 3.

Then, all of them spiral as a result of they consider Persistence is the one who turns Sam into stone after all of them deem her responsible of witchcraft.

Ghosts’ “Halloween 4: The Witchcraft” Underscores How Deeply Jay Loves Sam
One thing we have to discuss extra typically is how unbelievable it’s to see such a wholesome depiction of marriage by way of Ghosts’ Sam and Jay Arondekar. He’s a metropolis man who left New York to maneuver into an deserted (and haunted) property together with his spouse, and repeatedly, he places up with the whole lot she wants as a result of the depth of his love can’t be contained.
What we additionally want to deal with on this situation is that one ought to by no means doubt the love a nerd has for his or her collector’s objects. With that in thoughts, in terms of his spouse, Jay would quit the whole lot he has. After Trevor notifies him that he unintentionally offered Sam, Jay does the whole lot in his energy to get her again, together with a tearful hug that reminds viewers of how deeply he adores her.
What’s particularly beautiful is that after the whole lot, he even apologizes for not letting her have fun Halloween as a result of the considered shedding her was a terror he by no means needs to expertise once more. Their loyalty to at least one one other continues to flooring me, and the way Ghosts Season 4, Episode 3, “Halloween 4: The Witch,” touches on this makes the annual vacation episode much more thrilling. Plus, with Jay’s household set to go to throughout Christmas, it will likely be much more fascinating to proceed watching their relationship evolve and stand for example.
We See You, Hetty and Trevor
What do Ghosts and Bridgerton have in widespread outdoors of romance and a singular costume that Rose McIver rocks adorably? Each reveals aren’t delicate in terms of romance, yet another than the opposite, however nonetheless. Ghosts writers have mentioned they don’t have plans to get Hetty and Trevor again collectively, however this doesn’t cease Asher Grodman and Rebecca Wisocky from wanting it. It doesn’t cease viewers both as a result of they’re sizzling and ought to be collectively.
Extra importantly, there’s no logical rationalization for why these two can’t have a dialog with out touching one another. Certain, it is sensible that Hetty would run to Trevor to ask him a mathematical query (finance bro and all), however there’s no cause for him to increase his arm out and maintain onto her?! Sure, I’d even be devastated if somebody offered a stunning raven statue of mine, however I wouldn’t should be comforted by “my ex.” Besides that’s not all; there’s a short second the place Hetty voiced that Sam’s Bridgerton-esque costume belonged to her, and Trevor eyes them each, then brazenly gawks at Hetty. What are you picturing there, bud? Your woman in a bodice ripper? The reformed rake and a baroness who’s by no means been handled proper by her husband…oh, I’ve learn that story earlier than—numerous instances.
Primarily, the relationships in Ghosts and in Bridgerton aren’t that totally different. The dynamics are too compelling to not discover them additional, and the writers are too intelligent to incorporate little hints like this in the event that they aren’t meant to get again collectively. Plus, it was simply final week that Trevor was giving Nigel flack for residing together with his ex as if he’s not doing the very same factor. What makes him and Hetty totally different? The truth that he nonetheless needs her again?
