When Ghosts returns on the 2025 TV schedule, our guy Jay will probably be dodging near-death experiences left and right, because he accidentally made a deal with the demon Elias. Whoops! Understandably, when that happened, Utkarsh Ambudkar, who plays the human, became a little afraid about what lies ahead for his character. However, he also revealed why this storyline creates some “really fun opportunities” for the show that we should be excited about.
Since Jay will quite literally be looking at death’s door in the upcoming season (and who knows, maybe he might go to hell), I get why Ambudkar was a little afraid. Going into Season 5, despite Ghosts’ two-season renewal, his fate on the show was very unknown. To that point, the actor said this when asked about Jay’s deal with Elias during the show’s panel at San Diego Comic-Con that CinemaBlend attended:
At first, I was afraid about the job security we talked about earlier.
a spirit could get sucked off at any moment, and it’s always possible that a human will die on the property. However, those potentially lethal situations typically lead to funny stories too – just look back on the time we thought Flower was sucked off, but she was really stuck in a well.
