BBC Ghosts fans are convinced that the beloved sitcom is poised for a return following a cryptic post.
The hit show originally ran for five series between 2019 and 2023, it followed a group of ghosts from different historical periods haunting a country house while sharing it with its new living occupants – a married couple.
It quickly became a fan-favourite series and had an impressive cast including Charlotte Ritchie and Kiell Smith-Bynoe.
As well as Mathew Baynton, Simon Farnaby, Martha Howe-Douglas, Jim Howick, Laurence Rickard and Ben Willbond
Despite fans being devastated when it came to an end three years ago, Matthew Baynton, who played Thomas Thorne, has now sent fans into a frenzy as he took to his social media to tease the show return.
The star posted a short clip of the famous wooden front door opening all by itself. He decided to keep the post a mystery as he didn’t caption the cryptic snap.
As expected it didn’t take long for fans to share their reaction as one fan said: “Ohmagaaad what’s going on!”.
Whilst another declared: “WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS.” “Are we getting to return to Button House? ! ? !” a third asked.
“Is it Ghosts the movie? Please say it’s Ghosts the movie,” one supporter pleaded. Meanwhile another fan insisted: “Please say you are making a Ghosts film/Christmas special/new series? Pleeeeeeease! !”
Jim Howick, who played Pat Butcher, and Martha Howe-Douglas, who played Lady Stephanie ‘Fanny’ Button, also posted the same video of the door to their Instagram with no caption.
Ghosts came to an end with a Christmas special however it made a comeback in Australia. It was revealed it had been given the go ahead last year and it began airing in November.
It comes as no surprise that fans loved the show however it’s not clear if it will be returning for a second season.
