The back seat driving mothers ghost is the best although it looks more like the CryptKeeper than a ghost.

For those of you who may not know this, the makeup artist responsible for the that horrific makeup for the "after" version of Dorian Gray is the same guy who was responsible for turning 13 year old Linda Blair into a demon possessed kid in the Exorcist- Dick Smith. The guy who was not only Rob Bottin's and Tom Savini's mentor and inspriation but also Rick Baker's as well. He did more rubber and spirit gum than a whole complex of computers putting out CGI crap could ever think about doing. Just like seeing the man get his props.

The Three Men and a Baby image, the ghost is a card board cut out. When the three guys move in to the building Ted Danson grabs it out of the truck and poses next to it. Then later on in the movie you can see it standing in the middle of the room.
