30th Anniversary!

Featuring a new animated short film before the feature.

In this live-action fun house ride based on the beloved cartoon character and filled with laugher, excitement and ghostly surprises, "Ghost Therapist" Dr. James Harvey (Bill {Pullman) and his teen daughter Kat (Christina Ricci) arrive at spooky old Whipstaff Manor. It's greedy owner, Carrigan Crittendon, has hired Dr. Harvey to exorcise the house's apparitions: a friendly but lonely young ghost named Casper, who's just looking for a friend, and his three outrageous, troublemaking apparition uncles. If their plan works, Crittendon and her partner-in-crime, Dibs, can get their hands on the manor's fabled treasure. Meanwhile, Casper has found a kindred spirit in Kat, but the Ghostly Trio will not tolerate "fleshies" in their house, leading to a lot of high-spirited hijinks! (Dir. by Brad Siberling, 1995, USA, 90 mins., Rated PG)
