SYNOPSIS

Based on an original idea by Chris Butler, this is about a small town which comes under siege by zombies and calls upon Norman (voiced by Kody Smit-McPhee), a misunderstood boy who is able to speak with the dead. In addition to the zombies, he'll have to take on ghosts, witches and, worst of all, moronic grown-ups, to save his town from a centuries-old curse. But this young ghoul whisperer may find his paranormal activities pushed to their otherworldly limits.
