Plot[]
The story revolves around Ezekiel "Zeke" Holloway, a young aspiring writer who visits the mysterious Haunted Mansion. Zeke's visit coincides with the awakening of Atticus Thorn, the main antagonist, who seeks to destroy everything in his path using his supernatural powers.
As Zeke explores the mansion, he encounters various ghostly characters such as the Ghost Host, Madame Leota, Constance Hatchaway, Ezra the Skeleton, Phineas the Traveler, Gus the Prisoner, and the Singing Busts. These characters aid Zeke on his journey, providing him with clues and guidance to navigate the mansion's dark and supernatural puzzles.
Throughout the film, Zeke learns about the mansion's history and the secrets it holds. He discovers that Atticus has trapped the spirits within the mansion, preventing them from finding peace. Determined to undo this curse, Zeke must uncover the truth behind Atticus Thorn's powers and find a way to stop him.
As Zeke delves deeper into the mansion's mysteries, he faces challenges, overcomes obstacles, and forms alliances with the ghostly inhabitants. Along the way, he also forms a bond with Emma Hudson, an insightful and helpful friend who has a deep connection to the mansion, and three young African-American siblings who claim to be expert investigators on the supernatural.
Ultimately, Zeke's bravery and resourcefulness allow him to confront Atticus in a climactic battle. With the help of his newfound friends and his understanding of the mansion's secrets, Zeke manages to defeat Atticus and restore peace to the Haunted Mansion. The spirits are freed, and the mansion's curse is lifted, allowing both the living and the departed to find solace within its walls.
