To celebrate Halloween coming, I’ve been enjoying watching scary and/or Halloween-themed adorable movies/shows.

I recently watched the 1995 film Casper for the first time since I was a kid.

I had a GREAT time re-watching this movie! I forgot how much I LOVED it when I was a kid! 🖤

When I was a child, I remember thinking how COOL Christina Ricci was in this movie! I also remember thinking that Bill Pullman played the SWEETEST dad. 🧡

My FAVORITE part of the film when I was little was when Casper shows his human form. I remember having such a HUGE CRUSH on the human Casper! 🤣

Watching the movie as an adult, I laughed A LOT and enjoyed being reminding of all these things. 😊

I didn’t remember that Eric Idle was in this film, and I have to say that he was FANTASTIC!

The adorably fun movie ended with the adorably fun song “Casper the Friendly Ghost” by Little Richard.

Lyrics:

Casper, the friendly ghost
The friendliest ghost you know
Though grownups might look at him with fright
The children all love him so
Casper, the friendly ghost, he couldn’t be bad or mean
You know he’ll jump and play, sing and dance all day
The friendliest ghost you’ve seen
He always say “Hello, ” and he’s really glad to meet you
Where ever he may go, you know he’s kind to every living creature
Grown-ups don’t understand why children all love him the most
But the kids all know that he loves them so
Casper, the friendly ghost
Casper and he’s friendly
And he’s friendly (whoo!)
He always say “Hello, ” and he’s always glad to meet you
Where ever he may go, he’s kind to every living creature
Grown-ups don’t understand why children all love him the most
And kids all know that he loves them so
Casper, the friendly ghost

The song makes me smile and want to start dancing. 👻

If you’ve ever seen Casper, what did you like the best about it?

Do you remember any Halloween-themed movies or shows you enjoyed watching as a kid? I hope you take some time to enjoy re-watching them now.😊

Wishing you well! 🎃
