This weekend, at the Destination D23 event in Orlando, Disney announced that its new film, “Haunted Mansion”, would be coming to Disney+, along with digital retailers, including Prime Video, Apple TV, and Vudu/Fandango on October 4th 2023. Today, Disney has revealed details on the physical media release, which will follow a couple of weeks later on October 17th 2023.

Inspired by the classic theme park attraction, Haunted Mansion tells the story of Gabbie (Rosario Dawson), a single mom, who discovers that the home she and her son share is haunted by irksome ghosts. Hoping to restore domestic tranquility, Gabbie recruits a motley crew of so-called spiritual experts to help rid the house of the supernatural squatters.

The film’s producers are Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich, with Nick Reynolds and Tom Peitzman serving as executive producers.
