Ghost Dad
“He's been walking through doors. He's been falling through floors. He's been going through a lot lately, but he's still Dad.”
Elliot Hopper, a widower with three children, is working on a business deal to get his family out of financial straits when he is suddenly killed in a taxi accident. With the aid of a paranormal researcher, Elliott attempts to complete the deal from the beyond, ensuring his family will be taken care of.
