In the third episode of the British supernatural drama series Being Human, entitled "Ghost Town", the three housemates - vampire Mitchell, werewolf George and ghost Annie - find themselves confronting spirits that are haunting various parts of their town.

The episode begins with the trio noticing an unusual number of ghosts roaming around the city, prompting Annie to seek advice from another ghost she meets in a local park. Meanwhile, Mitchell takes on a protégé named Bernie who he believes he can help turn away from the vampire lifestyle. At the hospital where George works, a new nurse named Nina catches his eye and he quickly becomes smitten with her.

As the night unfolds, Annie discovers that one of the ghosts, a young woman named Sasha, is responsible for the mysterious death of a man. Determined to help her atone for her past, Annie enlists the help of George and Mitchell, who help Sasha pass on to the other side. However, their efforts attract the attention of a powerful and malevolent spirit, who threatens to harm them all.

Throughout the episode, the show delves into complicated themes such as guilt, redemption, and the search for meaning beyond death. The interactions between the three housemates continue to be the heart of the show, with each of them struggling to come to terms with their new identities while supporting each other through their respective struggles.

Like the previous episodes, "Ghost Town" gives equal weight to both the supernatural elements of the show and the human drama that drives it. The fearsome ghost that emerges in the latter half of the episode is a genuinely terrifying presence, but it is balanced out by the tender moments shared between George and Nina, as well as the introspective journey the vampire Mitchell takes as he tries to help Bernie find a better way of life.

Overall, "Ghost Town" is a strong episode that highlights the impressive writing and character work that makes Being Human such an engaging and enjoyable show to watch. It is a great example of how effective genre storytelling can be when it is anchored in real emotional stakes and complex characters.
