The fifth season of Being Human continues to follow housemates Hal, Tom, and Alex as they contend with the problems of living with fellow non-humans (Hal is a vampire; Tom a werewolf; Alex a ghost). In addition, a newly recruited vampire with a volatile temper and a sinister government agent make their lives even more difficult. Of course, the gang still has bills to pay, and elect to take on a job at Barry's kitschy hotel where, unbeknownst to them, lives an evil the likes of which they've never known.(15**)
