We Have A Ghost

31 Days of Horror 13

We Have A Ghost (2023)


A 12-certificate so almost family-friendly (apart from a gloomy central bit) supernatural comedy where a family moves into a haunted house - and get a video of the ghost and it goes viral.

How much would a truly proven ghost sighting change the world? I’ve wondered that since the Amityville nonsense and this covers some of the likely results.

And the going viral happens half an hour in, in a two hour run time. The opening easing in could have been shorter, and other bits could have been trimmed as well - I for one did not need the car chase. But it’s amiable if highly uneven.

Written and directed by Christopher Landon, director of Happy Death Day and Freaky, showing he can do other things at least.

The medium: Netflix

Gameability: How would regular secret supernatural investigations deal with being on the news?
