All i remember is that there are two friends or brothers that find a
haunted house in a dump yard and one of the kids gets taken into the
house and these ghosts steal his hair. Later in the movie he is
playing in a soccer game and scores the winning goal and gets his wig
pulled off by another player (his parents super glued the wig on). A
long board leads to a tiny hole, leading to the haunted house. weird
huh? I think this movie was made in the late 80s or early 90s.

Hi drewbug,

I believe the movie you are thinking of is called "The Peanut Butter Solution". 

"Mike and his (male) friend Connie finally escape to the charred
remains of the building. Mike climbs up a shaky ramp to take a peak
inside, but soon screams in fear as he comes tumbling back down. When
he hits the ground, he slumps into unconsciousness, leaving Connie to
take him home.

But the trouble is just beginning. Mike wakes up the next morning to
find that all his hair has fallen out from the fright, only he can't
remember what scared him so badly. He sinks into a deep depression,
and refuses to leave the house. When his father buys him a wig, Mike
starts to emerge from his shell, but it falls off during a soccer
game, leading to ridicule from his peers. Just when it seems like
Mike's hair will never grow back, he goes down to the kitchen for a
snack one night and sees the ghosts of the elderly homeless couple.
The woman gives him a recipe for a hair-growing paste, full of
delightfully gross ingredients. The secret of the ooze, she claims, is
the peanut butter that holds it all together..."
