Synopsis
Hui Buh: The Castle Ghost (2006) is a German family fantasy-comedy you can watch online on iFILM. For five centuries, the ghost Hui Buh has occupied Burgeck Castle with one legal advantage over ordinary ghosts: a government-issued haunting license. His problem is that he is spectacularly bad at scaring anyone.
When King Julius XI throws a ball for his fiancée, Hui Buh's latest attempt ends in humiliation. The king burns the license and expels him from the castle — until the fiancée turns out to be a con artist and Hui Buh suddenly becomes indispensable. Mikhael Herbig plays the ghost; Sebastian Niemann directs. The film is based on a long-running German children's book series and plays it straight as a family picture with a genuine fondness for bureaucratic absurdity.
Unpretentious and good-natured — the kind of film that works because it knows exactly what it is. Watch Hui Buh: The Castle Ghost online on iFILM.
