"We wish to inform you that in this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes"

Ghost may be planning to kill off their current frontman Papa Emeritus IV later this year.

The latest installment of their video series, titled "Chapter 16: Tax Season," used imagery like a coffin and a video game's "game over" screen to suggest it may be the end for Tobias Forge's on-stage alter ego.

NME suggests the death of the character may signal the end of the band's "Impera" era, which began last March.
