Adam spends his off-time in the attic working on his hobby: building a scale model of the town. Adam tells Barbara he needs items from the hardware store they operate in town (now closed for their vacation), and she offers to accompany him. Adam collects the items, but on the drive home, the Maitlands’ car swerves to miss a dog and plunges off a bridge, into the river. </p><p>Barbara and Adam arrive home but are unable to recall how they arrived. When attempting to leave the house, Adam enters an otherworldly <a href="/wiki/Desert" title="Desert">desert</a>-like landscape populated by enormous sandworms. The encounter lasts mere seconds for him, but after Barbara rescues him, she claims he had been gone for two hours. After discovering a <i>Handbook for the Recently Deceased</i> and noticing they have no reflections in a mirror, the couple deduce they died in the accident and are now <a href="/wiki/Ghost" title="Ghost">ghosts</a>. </p><p>The house is sold to New York real estate developer Charles Deetz and his second wife Delia, a sculptor of questionable talent. Charles' teenage <a href="/wiki/Goth_subculture" title="Goth subculture">goth</a> daughter, Lydia, lives with them. Under the guidance of <a href="/wiki/Interior_designer" class="mw-redirect" title="Interior designer">interior designer</a> Otho, Delia begins renovating the house with a new-wave aesthetic of <a href="/wiki/Postmodern_art" title="Postmodern art">postmodern art</a>. </p><p>While consulting the <i>Handbook</i> on how to remove the Deetzes from their home, the Maitlands see an advertisement on their attic television advertising the "Bio-Exorcism" services of a black-eyed, green-haired entity named Betelgeuse. </p><p>Following the handbook's guidelines, they travel to an otherworldly bureaucratic waiting room filled with other distressed souls. After navigating the afterlife's complex bureaucracy, the Maitlands return home only to realize three months have passed and the house has now been completely redesigned. Their caseworker, Juno, arrives and discloses the Maitlands must remain in their house for 125 years before "moving on". She strongly urges them to scare the Deetzes out of the house themselves without getting Betelgeuse involved, revealing that he was her assistant before going into business for himself as a "freelance bio-exorcist." </p><p>Adam and Barbara's continued invisibility to Charles and Delia thwarts their fright attempts. Lydia, however, <i>can</i> see them, which she attributes to her peculiar nature. In frustration, the Maitlands end up summoning Betelgeuse, and instantly find themselves transported into the model, where they meet him. Adam and Barbara find Betelgeuse's crude and morbid demeanor offensive and quickly exit the model, then plan their first "haunt". </p><p>During a dinner party, the Maitlands possess Charles, Delia, Otho and their guests: Delia's art agent and his wife and daughter. Unexpectedly, their antics only amuse the group, inspiring Charles to pitch a supernatural theme park to investor Maxie Dean. The Deetzes uncover the town model in the attic; additionally, Otho discovers the Maitlands' <i>Handbook</i> and steals it. </p><p>As a show of his power, Betelgeuse transforms into a giant snake and terrorizes the Deetzes before Barbara banishes him back into the town model. </p><p>Juno summons Barbara and Adam back to the afterlife office and berates them for releasing Betelgeuse. Meanwhile, Lydia – depressed and blaming the Maitlands for Betelgeuse's attack – writes a suicide note. Lydia discovers Betelgeuse inside the model. In exchange for passage to the afterlife, she almost summons him, but the Maitlands return and stop her in time. </p><p>Maxie Dean and his wife arrive, repeatedly requesting evidence of the paranormal occurrences, but the Maitlands refuse to remanifest for their amusement. Otho uses the <i>Handbook</i> and conducts what he believes is a <a href="/wiki/S%C3%A9ance" title="Séance">séance</a> to force the Maitlands to show themselves. He <a href="/wiki/Law_of_contagion" title="Law of contagion">uses Adam and Barbara's wedding clothes to summon them</a>, but shortly after they materialize in their wedding clothes, they begin rapidly aging to the point of decomposition; Otho has instead mistakenly performed an exorcism on the Maitlands, which begins to send them to "death for the dead". </p><p>In a panic to save the Maitlands before it is too late, Lydia pleads with Betelgeuse, who offers a <a href="/wiki/Quid_pro_quo" title="Quid pro quo">quid pro quo</a>: he will rescue the Maitlands if Lydia agrees to marry him, which will allow him to permanently remain in the mortal world. Lydia reluctantly agrees and invokes his name three times. </p><p>Betelgeuse saves the Maitlands, drives away the Deans and Otho, then prepares to wed Lydia. The Maitlands, slowly recovering from near-exorcism, attempt to rebanish Betelgeuse to the model. In response, Betelgeuse beats them to the punch and banishes Adam to the town model, with Barbara sent to the desert-land. </p><p>Just before the wedding ceremony concludes, Barbara smashes through the ceiling of the house on the back of a sandworm, which devours Betelgeuse. </p><p>The Deetzes and the Maitlands agree to harmoniously live together, and the Maitlands grow closer to Lydia. Betelgeuse is left in the afterlife waiting room, waiting his turn to see a caseworker. When he attempts to steal a witch doctor-ghost's numbered ticket, the latter shrinks his head in retaliation. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Beetlejuice&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1184024115">.mw-parser-output .div-col{margin-top:0.3em;column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .div-col-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .div-col-rules{column-rule:1px solid #aaa}.mw-parser-output .div-col dl,.mw-parser-output .div-col ol,.mw-parser-output .div-col ul{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .div-col li,.mw-parser-output .div-col dd{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}</style><div class="div-col" style="column-width: 25em;min-width: min(25em, 100%);"> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Michael_Keaton" title="Michael Keaton">Michael Keaton</a> as Betelgeuse</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Alec_Baldwin" title="Alec Baldwin">Alec Baldwin</a> as Adam Maitland</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Geena_Davis" title="Geena Davis">Geena Davis</a> as Barbara Maitland</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Jeffrey_Jones" title="Jeffrey Jones">Jeffrey Jones</a> as Charles Deetz</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Catherine_O%27Hara" title="Catherine O'Hara">Catherine O'Hara</a> as Delia Deetz</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Winona_Ryder" title="Winona Ryder">Winona Ryder</a> as Lydia Deetz</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Sylvia_Sidney" title="Sylvia Sidney">Sylvia Sidney</a> as Juno</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Robert_Goulet" title="Robert Goulet">Robert Goulet</a> as Maxie Dean</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Dick_Cavett" title="Dick Cavett">Dick Cavett</a> as Bernard</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Glenn_Shadix" title="Glenn Shadix">Glenn Shadix</a> as Otho Fenlock</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Annie_McEnroe" title="Annie McEnroe">Annie McEnroe</a> as Jane Butterfield, Sr.</li> <li>Simmy Bow as Janitor</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Maree_Cheatham" title="Maree Cheatham">Maree Cheatham</a> as Sarah Dean</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Carmen_Filpi" title="Carmen Filpi">Carmen Filpi</a> as a run-over man employed as a messenger in the waiting room</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Tony_Cox_(actor)" title="Tony Cox (actor)">Tony Cox</a> as the <a href="/wiki/Preacher" title="Preacher">preacher</a> that Betelgeuse summons for his wedding with Lydia <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Jack_Angel" title="Jack Angel">Jack Angel</a> as the voice of the preacher</li></ul></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Susan_Kellermann" title="Susan Kellermann">Susan Kellermann</a> as Grace</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Adelle_Lutz" title="Adelle Lutz">Adelle Lutz</a> as Beryl</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Patrice_Martinez" title="Patrice Martinez">Patrice Martinez</a> as Miss Argentina</li> <li>Rachel Mittelman as Jane Butterfield, Jr. "Little Jane"</li></ul></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production">Production</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Beetlejuice&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Production"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Writing">Writing</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Beetlejuice&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Writing"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>After the financial success of <i><a href="/wiki/Pee-wee%27s_Big_Adventure" title="Pee-wee's Big Adventure">Pee-wee's Big Adventure</a></i> (1985), Burton became a "<a href="/wiki/Bankable" class="mw-redirect" title="Bankable">bankable</a>" director and began working on a script for <i><a href="/wiki/Batman_(1989_film)" title="Batman (1989 film)">Batman</a></i> with <a href="/wiki/Sam_Hamm" title="Sam Hamm">Sam Hamm</a>.

In this version of the script, Betelgeuse need only be exhumed from his grave to be summoned, after which he is free to wreak havoc; he can be summoned, but not controlled, by saying his name three times and wanders the world freely, tormenting different characters in different manifestations. </p><p>In another version of the script, the film concludes with the Maitlands, Deetzes, and Otho conducting an exorcism ritual that destroys Betelgeuse, and the Maitlands transforming into miniature versions of themselves and moving into Adam's model of their home, which they refurbish to look like their house before the Deetzes moved in. </p><p>Co-author and producer Larry Wilson has talked about the reaction to the first draft by a prominent executive at <a href="/wiki/Universal_Pictures" title="Universal Pictures">Universal</a>, where Wilson was employed at the time: </p> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1244412712">.mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 32px}.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;margin-top:0}@media(min-width:500px){.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{padding-left:1.6em}}</style><blockquote class="templatequote"><p>I won't name names here, but I worked at Universal Studios at the time.

Skaaren had Barbara and Adam encounter different limbos every time they leave their home, including the "clock world" and the sandworm world, identified as <a href="/wiki/Saturn" title="Saturn">Saturn</a>'s moon <a href="/wiki/Titan_(moon)" title="Titan (moon)">Titan</a>. Skaaren also introduced the <i><a href="/wiki/Leitmotif" title="Leitmotif">leitmotif</a></i> of music accompanying Barbara and Adam's ghostly hijinks, although his script specified <a href="/wiki/R%26B" class="mw-redirect" title="R&B">R&B</a> tunes instead of <a href="/wiki/Harry_Belafonte" title="Harry Belafonte">Harry Belafonte</a><sup id="cite_ref-Skaaren_12-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Skaaren-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and was to have concluded with Lydia dancing to "<a href="/wiki/When_a_Man_Loves_a_Woman_(song)" title="When a Man Loves a Woman (song)">When a Man Loves a Woman</a>". </p><p>Skaaren's first draft retained some of McDowell's Betelgeuse's more sinister characteristics but toned the character down to make him a troublesome pervert rather than blatantly murderous. Betelgeuse's true form was that of the Middle Eastern man, and much of his dialogue was written in <a href="/wiki/African-American_Vernacular_English" title="African-American Vernacular English">African-American Vernacular English</a>. This version concluded with the Deetzes returning to New York and leaving Lydia in the care of the Maitlands, who, with Lydia's help, transform their home's exterior into a stereotypical haunted house while returning the interior to its previous state. It also featured deleted scenes such as the real estate agent, Jane, trying to convince the Deetzes to allow her to sell the house for them (having sold it to them in the first place—Charles and Delia decline) and a revelation of how Betelgeuse had died centuries earlier (he attempted to hang himself while drunk—having been rejected by a woman—only to mess it up and die slowly by choking to death rather than quickly by snapping his neck) and wound up working for Juno before striking out on his own as a "freelance bio-exorcist". </p><p>Retrospectively, McDowell was impressed with how many people made the connection between the film's title and the star <a href="/wiki/Betelgeuse" title="Betelgeuse">Betelgeuse</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-schaaf_13-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-schaaf-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Casting">Casting</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Beetlejuice&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Casting"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Burton's original choice for Betelgeuse was <a href="/wiki/Sammy_Davis_Jr." title="Sammy Davis Jr.">Sammy Davis Jr.</a> The producers also considered <a href="/wiki/Dudley_Moore" title="Dudley Moore">Dudley Moore</a> and <a href="/wiki/Sam_Kinison" title="Sam Kinison">Sam Kinison</a> for the role, but Geffen suggested Keaton.
