You know them well if you ever visited the Haunted Mansion at Walt Disney World, Disneyland and Tokyo Disneyland.  Ezra (Skeleton), Gus (Prisoner) and Phineas (Traveler) – the infamous hitchhiking ghosts who figure prominently in Mansion lore and have even appeared in Mickey’s House of Villains and the Haunted Mansion movie.

Now they have their own feature fan-made film.  A Hitchhiker’s Tale tells the trio’s story as they try to escape an evil carnival.  Chased by “The Carnie”, a villain hand-picked by the Devil himself, the three flee while trying to the gypsy who can restore their previously bargained away souls.  Written and directed by Mason Betterly, the turn of the century adventure stars Scott Lee, Caleb Lenehan, Elijah Boggress and Alexander McPherson.
