The premiere of Ghosts Season 4 is approaching on the 2024 TV schedule , and as I count down the days to its October 17 premiere, my list of questions is only growing. Now, we know that two new actors are joining the Ghosts cast in key recurring and guest star roles – with one playing Patience and another as Sam’s dad. The reveal of who will be playing the Puritan ghost Patience specifically reminded me of two massive questions I have about the upcoming episodes and Isaac’s mystery specifically.

Ghosts Season 4 Has Added Mary Holland And Dean Norris As Recurring Guest Stars Before we get into the speculation about Season 4, let’s break down this exciting casting news. During Ghosts’ panel at San Diego Comic-Con (via CBS), it was announced that Mary Holland and Dean Norris would be joining the ensemble as Patience and Sam’s dad, respectively. Holland, who is known for her roles in Happiest Season and The Package , has been cast in a recurring role as Patience.

As you likely remember, this character is the Puritan ghost who haunts the dirt and kidnaps Isaac at the end of Season 3 . Meanwhile, Norris – who is best known for his parts in Breaking Bad and Under the Dome – will play Sam’s dad Frank. He will visit the manor with his new girlfriend, and it sounds like we’ll learn more about why the two haven’t stayed close.

While learning more about Sam’s family and her history is super exciting, and will add drama to this beloved comedy, Patience’s casting .
