Description:
Daryl Hannah, Peter O'Toole and Steve Guttenberg star in this gleefully ghoulish comedy sparkling with romance and rollicking with supernatural special effects. Written and directed by Neil Jordan (Interview With the Vampire) and co-starring Beverly D'Angelo, Jennifer Tilly, Peter Gallagher and Liam Neeson, High Spirits is the most fun you'll have in this world or the next!Impoverished Peter Plunkett (O'Toole) hatches the perfect plan to save his debt-ridden Irish castle: lure American tourists by advertising the place as haunted. But when Peter and his staff don sheets and chains to go a-haunting, they scare up more than paying guests'they arouse the real ghosts of Castle Plunkett! And when American tourist Jack (Guttenberg) spies a gorgeous ghost named Mary (Hannah), it's love at first sighting. Now all Jack has to worry about is Mary's murderous spook of a husband and their 200-year age difference!
Amazon.com:
Peter O'Toole (Lawrence of Arabia, My Favorite Year) gives an exuberant performance in High Spirits. Peter Plunkett (O'Toole) hopes to save his mortgaged castle by turning it into a tourist attraction--the most haunted castle in Ireland. When American tourists arrive--among them Jack (Steve Guttenberg) and Sharon (Beverly D'Angelo), a couple whose marriage is rapidly disintegrating--Plunkett's tomfoolery arouses the real ghosts, who decide to give these interlopers everything they're asking for. But when Jack accidentally helps a beautiful ghost named Mary (Daryl Hannah), she decides he's the man to help her break the curse she's been suffering for 200 years. High Spirits is an odd foray into comedy by director Neil Jordan (The Crying Game, Interview with the Vampire). The special effects are clumsy, but the strong supporting cast includes Jennifer Tilly, Peter Gallagher, and Liam Neeson as Mary's murderous 200-year-old husband. --Bret Fetzer

Rating:  - Delightful, even after all these years!
I first saw this movie many, many, moons ago, and found out that my Mom had never seen. Well, I made sure that this was one of her stocking stuffers for Christmas.
We watched it the other night, and she said she couldn't believe she had not seen it before and that anyone who is looking for a fun, laugh filled evening needs to see it. As for me, well, I never tire of it.
We can sympathize with some (Peter O'Toole and Steve Guttenberg), love to hate others (Beverly D'Angelo) ... Read More
Rating: - Romantic Comedy
This is a great movie. The ghosts are funny and everyone get the girl/guy they want at the end.
Rating: - Fun for the family
High Spirits is about a man named Peter Plunkett whose castle in Ireland is haunted by ghosts again. He decides to have the staff pretend they are ghosts to scare some tourists. Among the tour guides are a couple named Jack and Sharon Crawford who are having problems in their relationship. It isnt until Jack meets the beautiful ghost, Mary, when he realizes his love for another person, well ghost that is! Very funny, exciting, and just pure fun!
Rating:  - High Spirits
I love Peter O'Toole whether in this flick or How to Steal a Million he is one of the best English Actors.Darrel Hannah had a lot of fun in her role along with Beverly D'Angelo.A lot of silly fun.
