And ... free Halloween treats will be handed out after the show!

    Based on the popular cartoon character, here’s the story line: Casper (voiced by Malachi Pearson) is a kind young ghost who peacefully haunts a mansion in Friendship, Maine. When specialist James Harvey (Bill Pullman) arrives to communicate with Casper (and his fellow spirits), he brings along his teenage daughter, Kat (Christina Ricci). Casper quickly falls in love with Kat, but their budding relationship is complicated not only by his transparent state, but also by his troublemaking apparition uncles and their mischievous antics. 

    ALL tickets $6. Rated PG Suggested age 6 and up. All children must be accompanied by an adult.

    Costumes not required – but certainly welcome! 

    The Harbor Theater is located at 185 Townsend Avenue in BOOthbay Harbor! 633-0438. For more information on what’s playing visit www.boothbaycinema.org.
