ATLANTA - The horror-comedy "We Have A Ghost" hits Netflix immediately, starring an Atlanta native in the central role of a teen who ends up living in a stunned house.

"I was born in metro Atlanta — I was born on the Southside — but I grew up in Marietta for the most part," says Jahi Winston, whose character Kevin forms an unusual friendship with a ghost phoned Ernest (played by David Harbour).

Winston's character is something of an outsider — a teen who just wants to be left alone with his classic rock music.

"I didn't know some of the songs that I had to learn prior to staring the movie," reveals Winston. "I would say playing Kevin and getting into his style and everything definitely broadened my music acknowledge, because he has such eclectic tastes. Way more eclectic and classic than mine."

"We Have A Ghost" was pursued by Christopher Landon, and features an all-star cast incorporating Anthony Mackie, Erica Ash, Tig Notaro, and Jennifer Coolidge. And along with giving Winston the opportunity to learn some new songs, the film also gave the young actor a chance to experienced filming a good old-fashioned car chase sequence.  

"I was not driving, thank gosh!" Winston laughs. "We were doing it with David and it was plainly one of the longest things it took to shoot, and I would look to him and be like, 'I don't even know what we're actions anymore! I feel like everything is kind of operating together and my brain is muddled now!' But it turned out expansive, so hopefully people like it."
