G-G-GUARANTEED! YOU'LL BE SCARED UNTIL YOU LAUGH YOURSELF SILLY!

Luther Heggs, a typesetter for the town newspaper, pitches an idea for a story about a local haunted house where a famous murder/suicide occurred 20 years earlier.

Classic, cannot be replicated This Don Knotts vehicle made immediately after his days on the Andy Griffith show ended has now become a classic. Knotts’ plays the nervous typesetter who spends the night in a haunted mansion. He eventually wins the beautiful girl and solves a murder mystery, completely by accident of course. 9-10
