SPOILER ALERT: This article contains spoilers for the Season 5 finale of CBS’ “Ghosts,” streaming on Paramount+ as of May 22.

Is that it for Pete? The fan favorite “Ghosts” character vanished — seemingly for good — at the end of Thursday’s two-part Season 5 finale, and star Richie Moriarty is wondering the same thing.

Moriarty, who has played the spirit of late 1980s-era Pinecone Troopers leader and travel agent Pete Martino since the show’s launch in 2021, is eagerly awaiting word from “Ghosts” showrunners Joe Port and Joe Wiseman about the fate of his character — but is bracing for the worst.
