Stevenson Lowe's (James Spader) girlfriend Julia wants to get married. But all thoughts of proposing are quickly scared out of him by a couple of grouchy ghosts who have the marriage from hell. They are Max and Lilly Gale (ACADEMY AWARD winners Michael Caine and Maggie Smith), the original residents of Stevenson's newly purchased brownstone. They have no intention of leaving to make room for the young couple. When Julia decides she's waited long enough for a proposal, she leaves Stevenson and his crazy ghost stories behind. True love gets a spirited test as Stevenson's afterlife houseguests try to reunite the young lovers.
