TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

This is the first feature film to have a fully computer-generated visual effects character in a leading role.

The town of Friendship, Maine is the name of a real village in mid-coast Maine, near Camden and Rockport, where scenes from the movie were filmed.

In the mirror scene, Dr. James Harvey was going to transform into Steven Spielberg. Spielberg filmed the cameo, but it was cut for pacing reasons. Spielberg was relieved, feeling he was a terrible actor.

James and Kat Harvey are named after Harvey Comics, the long time publisher of "Casper the Friendly Ghost".

During filming, Bill Pullman and Christina Ricci had to talk to tennis balls in place of the ghosts, while the ghosts were added later on.

Popular Dialogues

"Casper: There's a girl... on my bed. YES!"

"Dr. Raymond Stantz: [runs out of the house frantic] Who you gonna call? Someone else."
