There's no unfinished business when it comes to our enduring love for Casper .
Released in May 1995 months before Halloween, no one expected Casper to become one of the year's biggest hits, let alone an iconic staple of spooky season.
Made for $55 million, the movie which starred Bill Pullman and a then-14-year-old Christina Ricci went on to gross $300 million and became one of Universal Studios' most beloved properties in the '90s.
But did you know that original version of the beloved classic didn't include Casper in human form? Yes, that's right, we were almost robbed of hearing '90s teen heartthrob Devon Sawa famously ask , "Can I keep you?" (We shudder just thinking about all of the sexual awakenings that never would have happened!)
