A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

I, too, saw this movie as a child and have NEVER forgotten it.I check every year for it on DVD but haven't been lucky enough to find it since they haven't released it. I'm hoping that the powers that be will release it so that I can show it to my kids and niece. Nothing like scaring the pants off of kids with ghost movies. LOL! If enough people mention it to Disney (I think it's Disney!!) then maybe they'll put it out?? The little girl ghost was very memorable and I think she's the reason I haven't forgotten it. It was such an endearing and well done story.Strange.

I first saw this movie as a child and loved how Inez said the boys name "Alexander" with a french accent. I just loved it so much I vowed to name my son that if I had one...and I did...and his name is Alexander. So as you can see I am a Big fan of the movie. You have to see it..it's much more fun seeing with a child to.AMJG5

I must say that this was a very enjoyable movie and would recommend it for the whole family.Here is a ghost story that builds on the idea that trust is a good thing and even though you may reside in different worlds you can still bond with each other and help in a time of need.A modern boy keeps seeing a ghost girl, about his same age, and discovers that the little girl cannot rest in peace until she solves a riddle. Even though it may be dangerous and the little boy will end up losing the ghost girl as a friend if he succeeds in solving the it he agrees to help. He gets help from a new neighbor friend who is also the same age and their off to the races. They have only until holloween to solve the riddle of "The Child of Glass"

This is a great ghost story. It stayed with me from the time I first saw it as a child. I just loved it. A little french girl's ghost on an old spooky southern plantation. This was based on a book called "The Ghost Belonged to Me". After watching this film, I bought the book and it's sequel, which were just as good as the movie. If you're looking for a good ghost story, this is it.
