Ghost releases more tour dates in new Chapter video
By Devin Shea
If you can recall, before the release of Prequelle, fans of the band Ghost were electric with anticipation over the announcement of a new Papa Emeritus. After Papa III was dragged off stage and the announcement was made, we watched for months for news. Around May, Ghost started releasing videos. Chapter 1, Chapter 2 and Chapter 3 all worked to announce there would be no new Papa due to no more children by Papa Nihil. There now would be Cardinal Copia to lead the Ghouls (and Ghulehs) and what a leader! We have quickly come to love him as much as the Papas. Ghost tweeted recently of another tale to unfurl and just last night, they gave us a new chapter. Check it out.
Sister Imperator has to run an errand in her beloved hooptie.
You have to appreciate Ghost’s humor. These guys are f*%@in’ funny and they love to show it off. We see Sister Imperator getting in her car to drive along cliffside roads, jamming the hell out to the sax solo in Miasma (one of the best songs on Prequelle). While I can’t blame her for her erratic dancing to that tasty saxophone solo, as I do much of the same, it inevitably sends her off the cliff into car crash made up of two blatantly different explosion videos. At the hospital, Papa Nihil enters in the only way he knows how…dramatically.
Lying on the bed is poor Sister, in a total body cast, which makes Papa need a puff from his oxygen tank (that was definitely the Darth Vader breathing sound by the way, I’d bet on it). Papa Nihil sees young Sister? This part is a little confusing because he sees a young, hot Sister Imperator and we see her spitting her water all over herself in a coughing fit. Whatever the reason, this part is hilarious and I love Papa Nihil and his cheesy ass grin. So, what was this whole video about??

It was to announce the European tour baby! Starting February, Ghost is making a tour around Europe. Fans across the pond have been begging for some tour dates and they got ‘em. It’s an exciting day for European Ghost fans. It seems like a dramatic way to announce new tour dates, but Ghost doesn’t do it any other way, and that’s why we love them.
