The Box sounds fun and funny, Kristina Van Kirk Hoffman!
I think you're close to a solid logline. I suggest taking Henry's name out of the logline. Names in loglines are usually for biopics, well-known stories, and franchises (like Mission: Impossible).
I also suggest telling how his mom's ghost screws up his plans.

Thank you Maurice for your suggestions. I'd heard including the protagonist's name was recommended, but I'll look further into that. I will noodle sharing how the ghost screws up his plans. I do provide more info in a paragraph synopsis, but I didn't see a space on this page for that. (FYI she, the ghost of his mother, cannot take her eyes off of him 24/7, which puts a wrench in his love life. He knows this from discovering her in the room. After observing her son in the act, she's decided he needs a tutorial to up his game). I just uploaded a poster for promotional purposes. I look forward to checking out your latest endeavors.
You're welcome, @Kristina.
"The ghost of his mother, cannot take her eyes off of him 24/7, which puts a wrench in his love life" and "After observing her son in the act, she's decided he needs a tutorial to up his game." I like that! Those scenes are going to be so funny!
There's a space to post your synopsis underneath the logline section.
