Ghostlight is the ninth studio album by Finnish alternative rock band Poets of the Fall, released on 29 April 2022, through Insomniac. As stated in interviews, the album serves as a closing part of a trilogy, with the first two parts being Clearview (2016) and Ultraviolet (2018). After more pop-oriented and synth-driven Ultraviolet, Ghostlight shows the band returning to guitar-led, symphonic orchestrations. It is the longest album in Poets' discography.

Reception
The album was met with mixed response. Andrea Crow from Tuonela Magazine stated that Ghostlight "sees the band at the peak of creativity and artistry, as their trademark blend of rock, pop, and cinematic orchestrations has reached a new level of perfection and beauty".[2] On Sputnikmusic, the album got 2.5 out of 5 with the reviewer hoping for the band "to step away from the flirting with the 1980s sound that overshadowed everything [on Ultraviolet] and give us something a bit livelier".[3]
