The spooky Netflix original film comes from Christopher Landon, the director of Freaky, and is based on the short story “Ernest” by Geoff Manaugh. We Have a Ghost finds Marvel’s new Captain America moving his family into an old, rundown house that just happens to be haunted by a ghost named Ernest, played by the Stranger Things star. Everyone at Jahi Winston’s high school is already aware of the house being haunted, but when the family actually meets Ernest, they learn he’s a friendly ghost.ย
