Chris (played by Deniz Akdeniz) is one of the newest ghosts introduced in Ghosts (US), an Australian stripper and part-time DJ, Chris dies after a parachute stunt at Alicia’s bachelorette party that goes horribly wrong. Hired by Sam to perform at Alicia’s bachelorette party, Chris decides to give the party guests a surprise rooftop performance. His dramatic entrance ends in tragedy when his parachute fails and he crashes through the ceiling, dying instantly — and becoming bound to Woodstone as its newest ghost.
Chris is openly bisexual, and his queerness is established casually and early in his storyline. When asked about his attraction to women, he quickly adds, “Yeah… and guys too, honestly.” The delivery is confident, immediately placing Chris in the lineage of Ghosts characters whose identities are acknowledged without question or judgment. His bisexuality is reaffirmed in Season 4, particularly when he references having had both a boyfriend in life and varied romantic experiences, especially hitting on Sam during his first appearance in Season 3, after being hired by Sam to dance for Isaac’s ghost before his wedding. The show treats his identity as natural and normalized — never mocked or over-explained.
His presence shakes up the romantic landscape at Woodstone, especially between Nigel and Isaac. After Chris flirts with both men, Nigel kisses him — a moment that sparks clear jealousy in Isaac. Chris, for his part, is charming but not manipulative; his flirtation is sincere, and he appears mostly unaware of the growing rivalry he has unintentionally triggered.
Chris also flirts lightly with Sam, calling her “alright” with a wink. Jay later refers to him as “some hot, invisible Australian guy”, highlighting that even the living aren’t immune to Chris’s appeal. While none of these interactions evolve into formal relationships, they highlight his easy chemistry with people of all genders and reinforce his bisexuality through natural, unforced storytelling.
Beyond his sexuality, Chris introduces new ghost lore. Like Pete, he discovers a loophole that allows him to leave the property — so long as he’s airborne using his parachute. This makes him one of the few ghosts with partial freedom, expanding the mythos of Ghosts (US) in an unexpected and comedic way. While he doesn’t seem too burdened by his death, Chris displays emotional range in quieter moments, particularly when supporting others like Thor or Flower. His willingness to connect, listen, and share pieces of his past shows he’s more than just a party-boy stereotype.
