About Ghost of the Town
In this pun-title cartoon (from Toast of the Town) Casper, the friendly ghost, is banished from Ghost Town/Heaven/Territory, because he refuses to frighten living people.
Directed by Izzy Sparber, Ghost of the Town leans on a strong ensemble — Alan Shay, Jackson Beck, Gwen Davies — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 1952.
