What to Expect from Chicago Fire Season 14 Episode 5: Ghosts
Stella appears to be in danger on Chicago Fire Season 14 Episode 5, “Ghosts.”
According to the promo video, there’s something mysterious at a call that causes her to lose consciousness — and it looks like this episode also has a bit of a spooky tone.
It’s also Halloween, and the photos from the episode show some pretty great costumes.
Meanwhile, Cruz is searching for the identity of an unknown ally, and Vasquez is forced to make a difficult choice. Does that choice have something to do with his father? It would make sense if so.
