Preview — Ghosts Season 4 Episode 5: Phantom of the Ballroom

Ghosts, Previews

The ballroom is open for business on Ghosts Season 4 Episode 5, “A Star Is Dead,” when a local theatre group books the event space for their new musical.

According to Sam, the Hudson Valley Players are the “premiere community theatre organization in all of Ulster County.” They want to use Woodstone’s ballroom to host their fall musical — Anything Goes.

The rental is personal to Sam, who was robbed of a leading role in the very same musical during high school.

So, was she relegated to the tech crew because of school politics or for a more suspicious reason? The ghosts are sure to uncover the real story with some classic meddling.

In the meantime, Alberta steps in to help Sam prepare a redo audition. As someone alive during the musical’s time period, who knew the creator of the musical, and can sing like no one’s business, Alberta will be fully in her wheelhouse for this outing. We love to see it!
