"Arrow" S4/EP5 "Haunted" Review: Sara's Condemned Soul, Constantine Arrives,

It was, as Stephen Amell calls it, a "DC-gasm" on tonight's new episode on CW's "Arrow." Tonight's episode picked up right after last week's episode with Laurel finding out that "Zombie Sara" escaped and the search was on. But, as the search for Sara continued, Team Arrow found out that the one Zombie Sara is after is in fact Thea. That's right, in whatever sort of mind Sara had, she must have remembered who killed her. The soul-less Sara targeted girls who looked like Thea, until she finally found her at her apartment and settled the rage.

After having fought Thea and landing her in the hospital, Sara returned to finish Thea off, but Oliver stopped her. Meanwhile, Damien Darhk had Capt. Lance running personal missions for him. With Capt. Lance in need of someone to protect him while breaking and entering into a Federal building, Oliver turns him to the attention of Diggle, who now knows that Capt. Lance is working for H.I.V.E., the secret organization behind his brother's death, and has mixed feelings about it. But, Diggle sees this as an opportunity to take down H.I.V.E. So, as Capt. Lance and Diggle break into the Federal Building and begin deleting files, Diggle manages to see his brother's name on the deleted list and tries to get it back, but sounds off the alarm, alerting the security.

Back at Verdant, Thea has set up the perfect trap to lure Sara back to them. And it must have seemed to have worked as Sara was lured back to the Arrow Lair by a traquilizer arrow. With Sara in the Arrow Lair, Oliver now gives a call to John Constantine, an old friend from Oliver's past, to help bring Sara's soul back to her. After Constantine arrived and acquired all that was needed for the restoration of Sara's soul to her body, he noted that the items only gave enough for three people to pass through to the other realm and back. So, as Constantine, Oliver and Laurel enter the realm, they wake up in their suits and fight their way to save Sara from being held back by demons. As Oliver and Laurel pulled Sara from the demons, they return from the realm and so does a now fully revived Sara Lance.

Towards the end of the episode, comes the baring truth to Diggle about his deceased brother, Andrew. Capt. Lance brought a "Classified" file to Diggle's place revealed exactly how and why his brother was killed. Apparently, Andrew was killed by asssassins and was a crime lord. As Diggle read the shocking truth, he seemingly came to peace, at the moment, with how his brother died. At the end of the revealing episode, Felicity's new assistant had finally cleaned up the last audio recorded by Ray Palmer before he "died." The recording revealed that Ray was alive and that he was in trouble, which is where next week's episode takes place.

Arrow airs Wednesday nights at 8pm/7c only on The CW
