ParaNorman, originally released in 2012 (not 2025), follows Norman, a misunderstood boy who can talk to ghosts. When his small town faces an ancient witch's curse that raises the dead, Norman is the only one who can save them. It's a spooky, funny adventure about facing fears, embracing differences, and learning that there's more to people – and spirits – than meets the eye!
