A few years back, the Disney company sacrificed creativity for $$$ after the popularity of the Pirates of the Caribbean flick. They rush released a slew of movies based off their most popular theme park attractions, including the Haunted Mansion.

Well, Disney has seen the error of their ways and following Disney’s Tron: Legacy presentation at Comic-Con today, director Guillermo del Toro popped out to announce he is be developing a NEW big screen adaptation of the Haunted Mansion. Guillermo promises that this time, the movie will actually be "scary" and says that he is not returning any of Eddie Murphy's calls to star.

As for his involvement, Guillermo has a big stake it in: co-producer, co-writer and director!
 
One of my favorite directors. Love both Hellboys as well as Pan's Labyrinth. I expect greatness from this. Not some more eddie murphy crap
