A new live-action series based on Casper the Friendly Ghost is in development at Peacock, according to a recent report from Variety.
The series is described as a horror/adventure show that will reimagine the origins of Casper the Friendly Ghost in a “coming-of-age story.”
The series will focus on a new family arriving in the town of Eternal Falls and likely discovering Casper.
The film was a massive success, and spawned multiple direct-to-video films, Casper: A Spirited Beginning, and Casper Meets Wendy, that released in 1997 and 1998, respectively.
