The musical, based on the 1988 dark comedy about a recently deceased couple and the ghoulish bio-exorcist they hire to scare the new tenants out of their house, will feature a score by Australian musician and comedian Eddie Perfect and a book by Anthony King and Scott Brown. Perfect is also at work on the Broadway-bound King Kong musical.
