Anyone else find the scene where he throws the baseball to his son absolutely hilarious? He throws the ball something like ten feet above the kids head into a tree and then acts surprised when the kid couldn't catch it. He even mocks the kid for missing it.

Later the wife suggests he become a coach. Yeah because he did such a good job teaching his own kid how to catch a ball.

Um, that ball was sucked in by the tree. It was obvious that father threw the ball and the tree "caught" it instead. Any normal person would think that they just made a bad throw.

So yeah, ghosts were playing ball. It wasn't the father. The tree was haunted. Very spooky. I couldn't sleep for a whole hour while deleting my pron after I was done watching the movie.

Is this on an alternate version? Because I just saw it on On Demand and there is no scene like this.

I just watched the 3-D Blu-Ray and that scene wasn't in it, either.

Not sure if there are multiple versions. My friend has the DVD and that's where I saw it.
