A comedic supernatural romp about a real estate agent juggling the absurdity of haunted houses and the 2008 housing crisis, blending paranormal hijinks with workplace humor.

For most people affected by the recent housing market crash, the impact was financial. Super nice real estate agent Richard Scarry has an additional burden: the paranormal.
