Film(s) Summary:
Three decades have passed since the Deetz family discovered that their recently acquired home was haunted by ghosts and that mischievous demon who’s name unleashes him on the world. After an unexpected tragedy, the family must return to Winter River, and all must come home to grieve. Lydia (Winona Ryder) has a reality show capitalising on her paranormal abilities. At the same time, her stepmother, Delia (Catherine O'Hara), continues to grow her brand in the world of performance art. Yet, both struggle to connect with Lydia’s daughter, Astrid (Jenna Ortega), who lives out her existence as the angsty teen who is still mourning the death of her father. As the Deetz head back to the small town and look at the model of the little village, Astrid decides to put the paranormal boundaries of the family’s past and introduce herself to the Bio-exorcist named Beetlejuice.
