The ghosts surrounding Sam (Rose McIver) while drinking wine with her husband Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar) in a still for Ghosts Season 4.
Obviously, when you watch the hit CBS sitcom, Ghosts, you need to be able to suspend disbelief. Of course, there's no logical reason that Sam would suddenly be able to see spirits after hitting her head, or that the ghosts can walk through walls but use the stairs instead of floating up through the ceiling.
All of these aspects add up to make a fantastically silly show. But there is one element of the series that is a bit confusing . ✕ Remove Ads How Do the Boundaries Work in 'Ghosts'? From the very first episode of Ghosts, it has been established lore that these specific ghosts are all living in the Woodstone Mansion because this is the location of their death. The very different spirits from various generations are trapped together because they all met their maker in the same spot. Some new ghosts have been introduced over four seasons, such as Nigel , who was living in a shed on the grounds, and Patience , who was actually living underneath the Woodstone property. ✕ Remove Ads These ghosts are introduced because there is some permitted exploration of the nearby areas of land surrounding the mansion. But it has always been assumed that the ghosts can't truly leave the confines of the Woodstone property, and are merely stuck where they died. There has also been a recent focus on these physical boundaries because of Pete's newly discovered ghost power in Season 3. He can cross the property lines of Woodstone and travel wherever he pleases . But this plot twist has only brought up even more questions about how the ghost boundaries actually work.There Are Some Inconsistencies in the 'Ghosts' Universe Close ✕ Remove Ads Most would assume that the spirits are simply stuck in the location where they died, and that consists of the Woodstone grounds. But ghosts like Thor and Sasappis were alive when the Woodstone Mansion hadn't even been built yet. They were most likely living in tents or huts on the land. So, if Woodstone wasn't properly constructed yet, what keeps them tied to that specific site? Perhaps it works that they can't go too far away from the exact spot they were when they died, but there seems to be a gray area here. What's stopping Thor and Sasappis from roaming more freely in the area surrounding Woodstone? They likely would have explored much of that landscape while they were alive, but in the series, they're pretty much always just in the house or in the front yard of the estate itself. ✕ Remove Ads And then the biggest inconsistency seems to be between Thor and his son, Bjorn . Bjorn has been stuck on the nearby Farnsby property for hundreds of years. The property is right across the way from Woodstone . But how could the two be close enough to shout to one another from their respective estates, but not close enough that they could meet up? It's obviously funnier to have the two communicate this way, but it does open up a plot hole for the series. If there were no homes built at the time that Thor and Bjorn were roaming the earth, it stands to reason that they could cross paths today if they wished. How could there even be property lines dividing them if there were no properties back then? ✕ Remove Ads The Ghosts writers need to do something to address this confusing element. Maybe the spirits have to explain to a new ghost how these boundaries actually work . Or perhaps they can elaborate on the idea of energy boundaries that vary from spirit to spirit, which could explain why some ghosts are only allowed to travel short distances . The ghosts should at least have a conversation about what they believe the boundaries are so that there's some clarity. Even if the Woodstone spirits just hint at the fact that they don't know why these limits exist , it would tie up these loose ends that are frustrating for viewers.
