This scene has stuck with me throughout my life. I remember seeing it in theatre's in 1995. There is something really sad about the ghost of a 12 year old describing how he died and how sad his father was. Plus the music added a whole other level.

James Horner’s score in this really emotional

I was trying to read the dates off the news paper, but it's too blurry. If his favorite baseball player was Duke Snider (while Casper was alive and didn't become a fan while a ghost), then he died from 1947 to 1957 because that's when Duke Snider was playing baseball. AND the Casper cartoon was created in 1945 so maybe that's when he died, but then he would have missed Dukes playing years. So maybe Casper became a fan when he was already a ghost. And the pic of his father does look early 1900s to late 1800s.

I remember being a kid and not understanding what he meant by he got sick and his dad got sad until like a few years later it got me tearing up….

would have been much cooler (and funnier) if Casper's room was full of Eminem merchandise. lol

That is so, so sad

I know this movie has its critics, but nobody can deny that this story is heartbreakingly tragic. No parent should ever have to bury their child...

This is one of the saddest scenes in the movie.

How did her mom's dress which clearly was too big for her just magically shrink to her size?

That’s a beautifully sad and deep backstory for Casper that this movie created, back in the comic books Casper was born a ghost and had ghost parents

Exodor was ahead of his time.

OMG...This is EPIC!!! ILOVE IT!!!

After watching the trailer, it was said Casper wondered the halls of Whipstaff Manor for 100 years. The movie came out in 1995, so Casper died in 1895. He died as a 12 year old, so he was born in 1883 ( died at age 12 in 1895)

Na nau mork.

So what was Caspers unfinished business?

I was so jealous of his bedroom when I was a kid

Honestly they way he explains how he died it raises the question of why there aren't many ghost over the world. If ghosts were common what would that intake would it be like vampirism thing like a ghostly organization where they choose how they rule the world and humans become their playthings or like a zombie outbreak where it spreads like wildfire where the dead outnumber the living or would they be treated as second class citizens not entitled to anything this raised so many questions

Supposedly this backstory is canon to the original author and 1950's show writers but it was too depressing to include in the 50's cartoons and Seymour Reit's original 1939 children's book.

I can’t believe that the movie went THIS dark. Imagine being a fan of the 50s cartoons in the mid 90s and then getting this incredible heartbreaking 💔 backstory to your favorite cartoon character; you’d be crying for days until you had no more water in your body.

What did Kat do to fall in love with the white-colored dress?

What really makes the scene eerie is there is no answer given of what happened to his mother. He stayed behind for his dad, who used the rest of his remaining years trying to bring him back. Its implied his mother died after seeing him as a ghost. Either of a heartattack or her killing herself.

I thought Exidor and Mork were one of the funniest pairings I'd ever seen. The two of them in tandem were truly one of the great tv double acts. Just so laugh out loud funny.

It's so weird when Kat asks what's it like to die

Everyone needs salvation here are the words of salvation please forgive me jesus im a sinner come into my heart and save me from my sin I no that you are the savior and I no that you died for me on calvary and I no that God raise you from the dead and you are alive and I thankyou for your salvation in Jesus holy name amen and its important to always ask for forgive

I used to say "Heavy sigh." All the time. Poseur romantic.

I actually memorized this speech when I was a kid, what a trip to hear it again!

Casper lived in the late 1800s. Because most people died due to pneumonia. The house, interior and his toys are from Victorian times!

Am sure they’ll remake this movie except the ghosts will be black or women or trans…….

I be like is my hair black?

Casper cute malay ghost not like this but he is a cartoon ghost 🥺

I cried watching this as a kid. What are you talking about? I ain't crying now *sniff sniff*!

Exidor should have had his own spinoff

seeing mixed reactions here

Nice Story Mate

Kat: What’s it like to die? Casper: Like... being born, only backwards. I remember, I--i didn’t go where I was supposed to go. I just.. stayed behind...

_i would like to have a friend like Casper_

The piano at the end is emotional

Love it!

i got here beacuse i watched the remake of home alone . as kevin ans an adult . on twitter . looked at hia puctures . i saw something abou idle hands . the boy who played thr guy in thr movie is also stan from the eminem song

It's hard finding s moment in this movie that DOESN'T make me cry...damnit.

he was from another time, his clothes...

So he died of hypothermia?

Why’d you cut it off before he answered Kat’s question? It’s almost as heartbreaking as his story! _“It’s like... being born. Only _*_backwards._*_ I remember, I didn’t go where I was supposed to go. I just stayed behind, so my dad wouldn’t be lonely...”_

I'm sort of curious how Casper lost a finger. I know he is a cartoon ghost and all but if he used to be a live action human, what happened to one of his fingers?
