Ghosts Erases Pete Martino in Season 5 Finale as CBS Series Nears 100th Episode

Pete Martino disappears completely in the two-part Season 5 finale after staying away from Woodstone too long on a trip to London.
Jay and Kyle race him home as his body vanishes piece by piece, but the mission to recover proof of Nancy’s royal past ends before they can save him.
That proof matters because Ever Creek Water has bought a controlling stake in Woodstone and plans to demolish it for a data-mining facility unless the house wins landmark status.
Richie Moriarty said the cast still does not know Pete’s fate as writers begin Season 6, though he suggested another fake-out could feel cheap after Flower’s earlier false exit.
The cliffhanger lands as “Ghosts,” launched in 2021, heads into a 6th season and is set to film its 100th episode a few months in.

Is a new vampire show replacing 'Ghosts' or building a supernatural TV universe for CBS?
