Warning: The following contains spoilers for Thursday’s Ghosts. Proceed at your own risk!

Sam and Jay may want to hire a publicist — just don’t let it be Elias Woodstone! — because Ghosts’ B&B is becoming quite the hot spot for people dying.

On this week’s episode, the estate was host to a bachelorette party for Alberta’s descendant, Alicia, and Sam planned a special surprise: she hired stripper Chris (returning guest star Deniz Akdeniz), aka Isaac’s dino-loving crush, to dance for the ladies as part of his “It’s Raining Men” package. As it turns out, that package title is quite literal: Chris parachuted down… and crashed through the roof of Jay’s restaurant when his chute didn’t open. And with that, the Woodstone property gained yet another ghost, one who may have just launched the show into its season endgame.

Star Rose McIver previously told TVLine that the opening of Mahesh “is not a smooth course for very long.”

“There’s definitely some pretty major hurdles that come up, particularly towards the end of the season. The success of the restaurant may come at a cost, and we learn a lot more about that,” McIver teased.

Someone crashing through the restaurant’s roof is certainly a major hurdle, if you ask us, and not just in terms of the physical damage it caused and the ensuing repairs. There’s also the restaurant’s reputation to consider. After all, people keep dying on the Woodstone grounds, which isn’t exactly a selling point for a new business.

As you’ll recall, Elias Woodstone was masquerading as a publicist a couple weeks ago, using a living body to get Jay to make a deal that, unbeknownst to him, would mean selling his soul and ending up in Hell. Could Mahesh’s latest challenge lead Jay to seek out help and actually hire fake publicist Elias? Consider us officially concerned for Sam’s hubby!

Ghosts fans, what did you think of the episode? Are you excited that Chris has joined the ghosts? (Isaac is totally going to lose his mind!)
