The movie is filled with lots of humor and heart. According to Richard Roper, a film reviewer, “One of the things I loved about ‘Haunted Mansion’ is the disparity in performances. ‘Haunted Mansion’ is a loud and raucous and semi-scary good time, but it also has real heart.”
Throughout the film there are many moments that will have the audience laugh and scream.
Harriet said to Ben in the Haunted Mansion, “ On days when I get really low I’ll hear a train in the distance. I call those ghost winks.” There are many inspiring quotes throughout the film Haunted Mansion.
