It's Halloween, and Professor Latouche and Miss Rateau move into a house haunted by the ghost of Anatole, once billed as Saint-Potache's biggest dunce. This mischievous specter drags Ducobu, Léonie, their parents, and Kitrish into a sequence of capers that are as funny as they are unpredictable.
The film is produced by Les Films du Premier and Les Films du 24, in co-production with TF1 Films Production and Umedia Production, with distribution handled by UGC. Filming took place in Belgium in the summer and autumn of 2025. The Ducobu saga, whose first five installments have racked up more than six million admissions in total, returns here with its iconic characters enriched by an unprecedented fantastical dimension. Fans will recognize the previous chapters, notably Les Vacances de Ducobu, Ducobu 3 and Ducobu passe au vert, available for streaming.
