Furious that her late father only willed her his gloomy-looking mansion rather than his millions is ready to burn the place to the ground when she discovers a map to a treasure. However, if she enters the rickety mansion to seek her claim, she's frightened away by a wicked wave of ghosts. Determined to get her hands on this hidden fortune, she hires afterlife therapist Dr. James Harvey to exorcise the ghosts from the mansion. Harvey and his daughter Kat move around in, and so on Kat matches Casper, the ghost of a boy who's"the friendliest ghost you know." Although maybe not friendly would be Casper's uncles--Stretch, Fatso and Stinkie--who are determined to drive "fleshies" away.
