GHOSTS Presentation in Ballroom 20: Join the Ghosts ‘fan-ily’ reunion at the San Diego Convention Center. The event will be hosted by TV host, journalist, “Talking Strange” podcast host Aaron Sagers and will treat fans to a ‘lively’ debate with fans on just who got ‘sucked off’ in this year’s cliffhanger, plus surprises specific to this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. The presentation will also screen the season two finale, a video featurette showcasing the past two seasons and an exclusive SDCC behind-the-scenes presentation from CBS Sunday Morning, which was on-set earlier this year. Thursday, July 20, 12:45 – 1:45PM PT, Ballroom 20.
Ghosts Activation: Ghosts Destiny Decider – Comic-Con attendees arriving to Booth 229 will be welcomed as guests of Sam and Jay’s Bed and Breakfast. As the front doors of Woodstone Mansion close behind each guest, they’ll warm themselves by the fire and relive special moments from the hit series. However, before exiting, each guest will have their fate decided.
Will they get ‘sucked off’ into the eternal light above or ‘go down’ to where their past misfortunes catch up to them? After each transition to their ‘next life,’ attendees will receive images of their posthumous experience and receive a limited-edition Comic-Con t-shirt*, branded as being ‘Ghosted’ at San Diego Comic-Con. *Supplies are limited.
