Netflix’s “We Have a Ghost” Brings Haunted Houses into the TikTok Age
Not me caring about the characters in a ghost movie…
*Minor spoilers for Netflix’s “We Have a Ghost” below*
I cannot believe that as a proud user of Beyoncé’s internet I didn’t know that the Netflix movie We Have a Ghost existed until the day it was released.
It’s a horror-comedy, a genre I’m a fan of, featuring a cast from TV shows I’ve enjoyed in the past, including mini-Ralph Tresvant from The New Edition Story (Jahi Di’Allo Winston) and my main mans from Stranger Things (David Harbour).
Like, what is going on algorithms? I let you track me through my 3 AM deep dives of extreme haunted houses I’ll never attend and High School Musical video essays and this is how you repay me?
Despite internet algorithms taking a major L with their marketing dollars, Netflix ended up displaying We Have a Ghost on Netflix’s front page during its Friday premiere, so I ended up watching it regardless.
Sometimes capitalism be hitting. What do people say, “Even a broken clock is right twice a day?”
