“Can I keep you?”

The Sad Sacks are back with a brand new episode of the PRPL Podcast—this time floating into Brad Silberling’s 1995 supernatural family favorite Casper.

Join us as we revisit the film’s charming performances from Christina Ricci and Bill Pullman, its surprisingly emotional core, and the groundbreaking visual effects that brought the friendliest ghost to life. Grab your flashlight—and maybe a tissue—because sometimes even ghosts just want to be seen.
