You're tuned to the good stuff
New Disney Show
The setup
The premise
Here’s the bit.
Siblings Hayley and Max cheerfully explain that their mother never returned from a business trip to South Korea, where a jilted official drowned her and she became a dripping water ghost. The bright promo then cuts between standard family-sitcom beats and horror-movie scares: the ghost crawls out of the television on movie night, lurks in doorways and under the bedcovers, and deals violently with Max's science teacher when he comes by to discuss bad grades. The kids decide to keep it all from their oblivious dad as the network promises a family with far too much spirit.
