The small New England town of Bridge Hollow takes Halloween very seriously. When Brooklyn transplant Sydney (Priah Ferguson) accidentally frees an evil spirit in The Curse of Bridge Hollow, she knows that she needs to stop it from wreaking havoc on her new hometown… and fast! Sydney teams up with her supernatural-skeptic father Howard (Marlon Wayans) to save the day. Before you press play on the family-friendly film, scroll down to learn more about Curse’s cast and the characters they’re playing.

Priah Ferguson

Teenage Syd wasn’t excited about her family’s move from Brooklyn to Bridge Hollow. But once she sees how excited her new neighbors get about Halloween, she begins to change her mind. When the spirit of Stingy Jack escapes to haunt the town, she must team up with her father to take him down and save the day.

Before her breakout role as Stranger Things Dungeons & Dragons expert and queen bee Erica Sinclair, Ferguson appeared in episodes of Atlanta and the period drama Mercy Street.

Marlon Wayans

A man of science and logic, Sydney’s father is skeptical of the supernatural and thinks celebrating Halloween is “silly.” He frequently pushes Syd into activities he thinks are appropriate for her, rather than what she’s actually interested in. As the two team up to save the town, they might save their relationship, too.

Comedy legend Wayans has a long résumé of hits, most of which are collaborations with his equally funny brothers: In Living Color, The Wayans Bros., Scary Movie, multiple stand-up specials and many, many more.

Kelly Rowland

Syd’s mother is the family mediator, frequently jumping in to broker peace between her daughter and Howard. She’s hoping the family’s move will help Sydney come into her own. 

Kelly, can you handle this? As one-third of Destiny’s Child, Rowland is responsible for some of the greatest songs of the past two decades. Of late, Rowland’s focus has turned to acting and television with her Merry Liddle Christmas movie series and judging stints on talent reality competitions.

Rob Riggle

The Gordons’ new neighbor goes all-out with his Halloween decorations, much like the rest of the townspeople, and he’s dismayed by Howard’s lack of enthusiasm for the holiday. 

After rising to fame as a correspondent on The Daily Show and a year on Saturday Night Live, Riggle has enjoyed a long acting career with memorable roles in The Hangover, Talladega Nights, 21 Jump Street, Modern Family and more.

John Michael Higgins

Howard’s good-natured new boss (and principal of Syd’s new school) has a secret interest in all things occult.

Higgins is best known for his work in Christopher Guest’s mockumentaries, plus iconic roles in films including the Pitch Perfect series, Wag the Dog, Ally McBeal, the Saved By the Bell reboot, Happily Divorced and the American Kath & Kim.

Lauren Lapkus

You can catch Lapkus in several Netflix projects, including Orange Is the New Black, The Wrong Missy and her own episode of Netflix Presents: The Characters, plus Good Girls, The Big Bang Theory, Jurassic World and more.
