Classic Movies Live – Season 4, Episode 31: The Haunted Mansion
August 23, 2023
On this week’s episode of Classic Movies Live!, we’re letting our (g)hosts get spooky!
Adapted from the Disney theme park ride of the same name, The Haunted Mansion features a family of colour moving into a secluded mansion only to discover that it’s inhabited by 999 ghosts… but there’s always room for one more.
To avoid becoming the 1000th ghost, the family teams up with a wacky band of characters including a short man and Madame Leota – a long-dead fortune teller who is trapped inside a crystal ball – to thwart the sinister plot of the owner of the haunted house.
The same thing happens in Haunted Mansion 20 years earlier, but different!
