Short description
In the town of Blithe Hollow, Norman Babcock can speak to the dead, but no one other than his eccentric new friend believes his ability is real. One day, Norman's eccentric uncle tells him of a ritual he must perform to protect the town from a curse cast by a witch centuries ago.
What's left behind the scenes
- The film was shot using a Canon 5D Mark II camera. To create 3D effects, the camera was mounted on a special device that allowed it to be shifted to a different shooting point after the first frame, in order to take the second.
- The Laika film company used 3D printers to create all the facial expressions needed for the characters.
- In the weeks leading up to the film's release, Laika sent 49 packages to 49 people (including Neil Gaiman and Kevin Smith). Each package contained a Blight Hollow wooden crate filled with 'grave soil' that recipients had to dig through to retrieve a coffin. Inside the coffin was one of seven cursed zombies, complete with a brochure containing their name and background information.
- With the exception of Judge Hopkins, the seven cursed zombies are not named, but they have names: the aforementioned Judge Hopkins, Eben Hardwick, Taddeus Blackton, Lemuel Spalding, Amelia Wilcott, Goody Temper, and Wil London.
- Norman's ringtone is the main theme from John Carpenter's 1978 film *Halloween*.
- The ringtone set on Norman’s phone is the main theme from John Carpenter's 1978 film “Halloween.”
