Can we talk about the healthy masculinity in the Haunted Mansion movie?
MILD SPOILERS
Like we see Ben grieving his dead wife like we see him break down sobbing crying like full on breakdown and we see Travis break down towards the end in the basement and neither time is treated like a joke!
They’re allowed to be upset they’re given the space and support to cry and it’s openly acknowledged that they need to do that.
Aside from it being positive masculinity it’s positive BLACK male masculinity which is even rarer idk I just loved this movie so much.

Haunted Mansion (2023) was really good. It had powerful messages of love and grief, was absolutely hilarious, very good found family situation, and just overall, I really enjoyed it.

It’s the Haunted Mansion’s anniversary today!!! The movie has me going back to my old Haunted Mansion brainrot😭😭. I wanted to explore making my own interpretation of the Hatbox Ghost. This isn’t definitive, I’ll probably tweak it in the future but I just love Hatty so much and I figured this would be nice to share for today.

I thought after the new trailer I gotta draw the Hatbox Ghost in his new design :D :D
Just some funny sketches about "What if the ghosts deliberately TRY to harm humans, but they don't see death the same way as the living".

Let The Show Begin!
Enjoy the once-in-a-lifetime experience today! Hopefully there will be no supercharged hatbox ghosts that come out of the 2024 Total Eclipse!

oh i almost forgot to share these! made some hatbox ghost themed fakemon a little while back! i'm thinking of doing an entire disneyland-themed fan region, but have these little guys for now :]
in order, their names are Hatbitty, Hatboo, Hauntbox and Alisterror! (the second set of pics is their shiny versions, plus an approximate height chart at the end there)
more info below the cut!
Tumblr media
Hatbitty - The Top-Hat Pokémon (ghost)
"It is unknown what the entirety of this Pokémon’s body looks like. It spends most of its time beneath the brim of its hat-shell, which is constantly filled with shadows."
Small enough to be worn like a normal hat by its trainer
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(second image is noncanon but i thought it was a funny idea lol)
Hatboo - The Hatbox Pokémon (ghost/dark)
"Though not as skittish as its evolutionary predecessor, Hatboos are still reclusive creatures. It will often hide from humans for long periods of time, usually in places like the attics of old houses."
Evolves from Hatbitty at level 13
Has skinny little legs hidden beneath its feathery "skirt"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hauntbox - The Hat Trick Pokémon (ghost/dark)
"No longer confining itself to the shadows, this Pokémon loves to entertain and bewilder. Teleporting its floating head around is its favorite party trick."
Evolves from Hatboo at level 31 (high friendship stat)
Tumblr media
Alisterror - The Occultist Pokémon (ghost/psychic)
"A ruthless, cunning Pokémon born from a life of neglect. It is said many inexperienced trainers have tried to pursue it, but never returned."
Evolves from Hatboo at level 31 (low friendship stat)

HAUNTED MANSION MOMENT
Not really a spoiler but just a heads up if you didn’t watch the movie (unless you don’t mind)

Bro has beef with people who read
(Edit: With credits of people in the comments: Alistair Crump can read, he just doesn’t trust people who read because the more intelligence they have the more they will question him or even rebel against them)

Another HM moment I really liked
There is also another moment in the Haunted Mansion movie that I really want to highlight and (slight spoilers ahead) that is the moment where Bruce interrupts Ben's mourning of Alyssa with his "think of the cholesterol on [your wife!]" Which triggers a massive fit of laughter in the entire room.
Unfortunately it has become a common theme in many live-action movies (looking at you, MCU) to ruin any moment with even the barest potential for some deep emotion with a joke. Like they can't think that a moving and emotional moment cannot be funny. And yet, Haunted Mansion takes that trope and turns it on its head.
Because Bruce's joke isn't the typical, groaning "oh god, here comes the emotion train, can't have that! (insert some half-baked sarcasm or bland joke here.)" It is Bruce looking around at his new friends, knowing that they are trapped in this place ruled by a malevolent spirit who feeds on grief, and Ben, the person who was told point blank that he will be the doomed 1000th spirit, mourning about his wife, telling them about her, her favorite snacks - the same kind she was going to get when the accident happened. And there is a long and silent pause, and some tears.
So Bruce brings in a little cathartic laughter, because silent sorrow isn't going to get them anywhere. So it's "Imagine the cholesterol on that woman!"
Yes, it is a pragmatic moment. But it isn't Bruce shutting Ben down or diverting the situation with a joke; he's just bringing in a lighter twist. Because sometimes, laughter can also be a part of healing.
It is a sorrowful, emotional moment. It becomes a funny moment. It does not lose the emotional impact. Yeah, it seems like another moment of "Bruce being a determined, oblivious, senile old potato" - but I'm pretty much convinced that Bruce knew exactly what he was doing.
(Also, I feel like pointing out that most of the rest of the group tries to restrain their laughter at Bruce's interruption... until they see Ben smiling and starting to laugh too. Then it's all-around laughter. The entire group respects Ben's grief and sorrow! There is never a moment where he is told off or dismissed for mourning his late wife.)
