Forever Home Movie: A comedy/horror feature about a haunted house that demands you stay forever. | Wefunder

A young couple unwittingly spends all their money on a new home only to discover that it's haunted. After inviting a medium into the house they all get locked inside and learn a terrible secret that puts not only their lives, but their afterlives at risk

Jules and Ryan are the unfortunate couple who move into the old haunted house. At first they are excited to begin their new lives together, but quickly discover that saving money on the house is costing them in other ways. Annoying ghost children won't let them sleep, a ghost violinist practices late into the night, and it's impossible to take a shower without the water turning into blood! Finally fed up with their otherworldly roommates they invite a medium named Meg into the house to dispel the ghost. But after a botched séance all the doors lock and getting out of the house becomes a matter of life and afterlife

It's not an accident that we bill the film as a Comedy/Horror and not a Horror/Comedy. The script is laugh out loud funny, but not without the scares and tension that come with living in a haunted house

Rather than every ghost being violent and rude, the various ghosts in the house embody a variety of personalities. This gives the film much more dynamic range, taking audiences on a genuine tour of emotions: crying from laughter one moment and dabbing tears of sadness in the next; all with scares and thrills layered throughout
