Nearly Departed

1989 NR 30m 6.8

When an English professor and his wife are killed in a freak rockslide, their ghosts must share their former home with a wildly dysfunctional new family, of whom only one--an elderly grandfather--can communicate with them.

Grant and Claire Pritchard are a deceased couple who still inhabit their home and make trouble for the Dooleys, the new owners. But Grandpa is the only one who can hear and see the ghosts in this short-lived comedy.
