Yes, there's a compelling romance beneath all the jokes in Disney's first Haunted Mansion movie from 2003.

As someone who grew up in the early 2000s, before Disney truly latched onto their formula of adapting their classic IP into live-action blockbusters, I have a lot of fondness for their 2003 film The Haunted Mansion. It was the first real “scary” movie I ever watched — though I would later grow to become a horror obsessive — and it introduced me to the iconic Jennifer Tilly long before I’d ever see Bride of Chucky. It remains a favorite for me, but even then: I’m an adult.

For a movie whose major set pieces hinge on the cheesy jokes typical of early aughts Disney Channel, it’s a surprisingly dark plot, plucked more from the pages of a Bronte novel than a Disney film.

Brides and weddings, in particular, have always been a key part of the Haunted Mansion’s story. Early concepts featured a bride named Priscilla, subsequently killed by her pirate husband, Captain Gore, while others highlighted voodoo queens and vampires whose marriages brought about the mansion’s downfall.
