Q

A Note Regarding Spoilers

A

The following FAQ entries may contain spoilers. Only the biggest ones (if any) will be covered with spoiler tags. Spoiler tags have been used sparingly in order to make the page more readable.

Q

Why are all of his girlfriends dead?

A

None of them are dead. They aren't ghosts in a literal sense. More like apparitions or haunting memories. Ghostly, but not actual ghosts.

Q

Is "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past" based on a book?

A

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past is a romantic comedy loosely based on Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. Instead of featuring the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future, it features the ghosts of girlfriends past [Alison Vandermeersch (Emma Stone)], present [Melanie (Noureen DeWulf)], and future (Olga Maliouk) of womanizer Connor Mead (Matthew McConaughey). Dickens' story was adapted for this movie by screenwriters Jon Lucas and Scott Moore.
