Ghosts (US)
One of the most unique aspect ofGhostsis that each spirit has its own power , and although Hetty is one of the oldest ghosts , she only just discover her attainment in season 4 , episode 16 . It ’s been fun observe other ghosts discover their powers , like the reveal ofthe basement ghost ’ destructive powerthat almost ruined Jay ’s restaurant porta , but we have been wait to chance upon what the Lady of Manor ’s powers would be .
While some of theghost powers in CBS’Ghostsare connected to their deaths , like Isaac ’s inauspicious olfactory sensation stemming from his last from dysentery , Hetty ’s is tie to her new sympathy of her true heritage . This explains why it did n’t evidence until now . WhileHetty ’s power was finally divulge , it was overshadowed in the same episode with another ghost also cause a much cool ability at the same time .
Ghosts Season 4, Episode 16 Finally Reveals Hetty’s Power
Hetty’s Power Is Intrinsically Tied To Her Irish Heritage
InGhostsseason 4 , episode 10 , Hetty learns that her grandmother was on the Q.T. , shamefully Irish , making her Irish as well . InGhostsseason 4 , episode 16 , Jay ’s cousin Sunil is last out at Woodstone Manor over St. Patrick ’s twenty-four hour period to abstract his spirits after being dumped . When she walks in , Hetty is ball over that Sunil can see and hear her , although he is completely incognizant of Alberta and Sas . He offers her some chocolate , and she cleverly correct by suppose , “ It goes right through me . ”
Hetty and some of the ghosts hypothecate about why Hetty can be seen now after being numb for about 150 year . Pete theorizes it ’s because she now know she is Irish ( and has learned to see the Irish as the great unwashed ) , which is why she can be get wind on St. Patrick ’s Day , the most noted Irish holiday . Pete break the conception of “ tiers ” for ghost powers , and whether Hetty stay visible will determine what tier her big businessman is . Tier One is “ godlike powers , ” Tier Two is “ neat but not really that utile , ” and Tier Three is scarce ever necessitate .

Sunil excitedly tells a confused Jay and Sam that he ’s had the most howling time get in touch with their “ Edgar Albert Guest , ” Hetty . Over tiffin , Sunil admires how present Hetty is , noting she has n’t checked her phone once . They forge a connection , asSunil is metaphorically an old soul and Hetty is one . Things are move so well that Sunil invites Hetty to converge up again next weekend . When Sunil reaches for her hand , he evidently passes right through hers . Disturbed and confused , Sunil is even more alarmed when Hetty walks through a closed in door .
subsequently , Hetty is filling in Sam and Jay in the kitchen when Sunil walk in , and ask Hetty in terror what she is . Hetty reveals her true identity as the Lady of the Manor and a ghost . Hetty thanks Sunil for allow her to make a substantial connectionfor the first time in her life or afterlife and tells him that even if he feel out of step in modern times , “ a wonderful human beings never fail out of way . ”
At midnight , the shade , Sam , and Jay gather to see what will pass to Hetty . Hetty is not soak up off , but she goes back to common self , where the bread and butter asunder from Sam can not see her , at least until next St. Patrick ’s Day , hopefully .
Hetty’s Power Is Cool, But Chris' Ability Is Far Cooler
Chris Can Fly Anywhere In The World With His Parachute
Hetty ’s power is unbelievable because even with a Tier One power like Trevor ’s , he must exert an unbelievable amount of energy just to press one button , but Hetty ’s might is effortless . Any aliveness can see her , at least for the 24 hours of St. Patrick ’s Day , but she is powerless the other 364 day a year . Hetty had to wait over a one C to watch her spook king , but Chris , the dinosaur - loving stripper well who died inGhostsseason 4 , episode 15 , did not have to wait nearly as long to discover a much cooler ghost power .
Pete ’s boundary office is great in ghost , but there is another one that has leaven to be a lot cooler , especially for potential storyline .
Chris was screen his malfunctioning parachute and realize he could wing anywhere , as the ghost limit did not seem to apply from above the basis . Chris key out it as a “ Mary Poppins ” situation , though he does n’t clarify whether he must actively pilot or just imagine a place and find himself loom over it . Chris ’ mightiness easily outshines Hetty ’s and even Pete ’s ability , although it is indecipherable whether he will have to periodically return to the property to foreclose himself from disappearing like Pete does when he is gone from Woodstone for too long .
How Ghosts Can Effectively Use Hetty’s Powers Moving Forward
Sam And Hetty Can Plan Ahead For Next St. Patrick’s Day
It seems thatHetty ’s tycoon are limited to St. Patrick ’s Day , but withGhostsrenewed for season 5and 6 , we will have two more chance for her to efficaciously use her power . This could be an chance for Sam to receive extended class over for a St. Patrick ’s Day Party to celebrate their heritage , so Hetty could not just see but carefully interact with other blood relatives .
Hetty so enjoy interact with the livings that she might insist Sam throw a political party or at least invite Sunil back next St. Patrick ’s Day , although I ca n’t envisage Sunil accept Jay ’s invitation back to Woodstone . As Hetty see , herGhostspower is a double - edged brand : while she can be see and hear , she still ca n’t physically interact with anything . If too many multitude let on that Woodstone Manor has ghosts , it could be bad for Sam and Jay ’s B&B - unless leaning into that angle is exactly what they necessitate to take their business to the next level .
fresh episodes ofGhostsair Thursdays at 8:30 p.m. ET and pour the next day on Paramount+ . Season 4 , installment 17 , " St. Hetty ’s twenty-four hours " will air April 3 , 2025 .
