We received a copy of Disney’s Haunted Mansion for review. All opinions are my own.
I wasn’t able to see this in the theaters, so I was looking forward to seeing this new take on a classic. I was a little skeptical but the movie caught my attention quickly and I actually liked it. Overall the movie is really good and is a lot of fun for all ages. It might be a little spooky for younger kids – depending on what they are used to. There is a good backstory and characters that you become attached to with good character development. Sit back and get ready for a fun story line and a new adventure!

Film Synopsis
Inspired by the classic theme park attraction, Haunted Mansion tells the story of Gabbie (Rosario Dawson), a single mom, who discovers that the home she and her son share is haunted by irksome ghosts. Hoping to restore domestic tranquility, Gabbie recruits a motley crew of so-called spiritual experts to help rid the house of the supernatural squatters. A non-stop blend of action, adventure and comedy featuring an all-star cast that includes LaKeith Stanfield, Tiffany Haddish, Owen Wilson, Danny DeVito, Dan Levy, Jamie Lee Curtis and Jared Leto, Haunted Mansion was written by Katie Dippold and directed by Justin Simien. The film’s producers are Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich, with Nick Reynolds and Tom Peitzman serving as executive producers.
