Is This Scary:
The Making of Ghosts

Michael Jackson's Ghosts is a 1996 short film directed by Stan Winston and co-written by Michael Jackson, horror novelist Stephen King, and screenwriter Mick Garris. The film features Michael Jackson as five different characters, including a spooky Maestro and a dancing skeleton.

The plot of the film revolves around a group of narrow-minded townspeople who are afraid of the Maestro, a supernatural character who lives in a haunted mansion on the outskirts of town. When the town's mayor tries to evict the Maestro, he responds by giving the townspeople a frightening tour of his mansion, which includes a number of illusions and special effects.

The film is notable for its impressive visual effects and makeup, which were created by Stan Winston Studio. It was also a critical and commercial success, winning several awards and nominations, and is considered a cult classic among Michael Jackson fans.
