Quotes 

• Grant Pritchard : If we're the ghosts, how come the Dooleys are haunting us?

• Grant Pritchard : I don't think I'm very good at being dead, Claire. It's all questions and no answers. For instance, if I am a ghost, why can't I walk through walls?

  Claire Pritchard : I don't know. I never could walk through walls, so I don't miss it.

  Grant Pritchard : Think about it, Claire, there must have been a billion people who've died on this planet, and we haven't seen one of them. I think they're avoiding me!

• Grant Pritchard : If I had my life to live over again, I'd do a lot of things differently.

  Claire Pritchard : Like what?

  Grant Pritchard : Well, for a start, I'd fix the brakes on that car.

• Grant Pritchard : I can't wait to chat with her again.

  Grandpa Jack Garrett : How? She can't hear you.

  Grant Pritchard : Good point, grandpa, old chum. But she can hear you.

  Grandpa Jack Garrett : Oh no, I'm not gonna tell anybody I talk to ghosts. They'll think I lost the filling in my Pop Tarts.

• Millie Pritchard : I thought I'd drop in and surprise Grant. I happen to be in town because of a young artist I've heard about.

  Liz Dooley : Do you collect paintings?

  Millie Pritchard : No, dear. Young artists. I'm something of a connessouir.

• Millie Pritchard : In my travels, I've managed to pick up a lot of friends.

  Claire Pritchard : And a truckload of other people, too.
