About Casper the Friendly Ghost: Boo Moon (1954)
Boo Moon is a 1954 American animated short film directed by Isadore Sparber and Seymour Kneitel. It is part of the Casper the Friendly Ghost series and is the second Famous Studios-produced and Paramount Pictures-released cartoon to be produced in 3D, after Popeye, the Ace of Space (1953).
Casper emerges from a subway station, following a crowd of scared strangers. He encounters a man saying "see the wonders of the Moon for ten cents", and offering a sight through a telescope. Casper scares the man away, then uses the telescope to see the Moon. He then flies to the Moon for a visit. Casper lands on the Moon, disappointed to find no man on the Moon.
