Ruotsalaisen okkultista rockia soittavan Ghostin Papa Emeritus on antanut hiljattain Kronelle haastattelun, jossa on paljastanut hieman omia suunnitelmiaan liittyen Ghostin tulevaisuuden esiintymisiin. Papa on haastattelussa kertonut yhtyeellä olevan haaveissa soittaa tulevaisuudessa yhä suurempia keikkoja muuttua sitä kautta gootti kauhun omaksi Rammsteiniksi. Papa on kertonut suunnitelmistaan seuraavaa:

”In my world, the shows we’re currently playing are 30% max of what Ghost is thinking about when it comes to theatricality.

”The concept will always be a sweaty rock show, but it’s always been the goal to create something superior. I would like to install different files, install several stages in an arena or hall and create an unprecedented overall experience.

”I would like Ghost to be a gothic horror version of Rammstein.

”I can not talk about it in detail, but we are also working on integrating Ghost into a kind of classical musical concept. This of course involves a lot of effort and it’s all about the songs and riffs.

”You need a production company that’s already networked to do the work for you. This takes at least until 2019 and you have to write a story and design the music.

”This cannot be underestimated, and in the end it takes five to six years to implement it. However, I have arranged these things well in my head and we are looking for partners with whom we can implement this.

”I do not know where we’ll end up, but we’re already networking. West End or Broadway shows are not unrealistic. Hopefully at least, we’ll know more in five years. [Laughs] We are only in the starting phase, but I have a rather solid idea for the next five years. You have to go baby steps. [Laughs]”
