Stevenson Lowe (James Spader) and his girlfriend, Julia (Polly Walker), move into a brownstone haunted by an old unhappily married couple (Michael Caine and Maggie Smith). The young woman is hungry for marriage, but he doesn't want to say "I do" just yet, especially after seeing the way things worked out for the ghosts. Julia eventually leaves him, and it's up to these ghosts and the young man to try to get her back.
