About this product

Product Information

Charles Barton directs one of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello's most imaginative screen efforts. The ghosts of Horatio Prim (Lou Costello) and Melody Allen (Marjorie Reynolds) haunt a nervous Abbott. The twosome were mistaken for traitors during the Revolutionary War and were shot, doomed to live on as ghosts. They have returned from the past to 20th Century New England to find a letter from George Washington that will prove their innocence. Melody was once the fiancée to Tom Danbury, who owned the estate and was a spy for the British. This foils the plans of the modern day, 1946, Abbott who would like to open the place to the public. Abbott sportingly plays two parts, one in each time zone, moving with ease from portraying a 1780s stick in the mud, to a psychiatrist who is a houseguest in the mansion in the 1940s. The story is replete with slapstick comedy, which culminates in the two uninvited guests driving the shrink out of his mind. The supporting cast offers up distinguished performances, especially Gail Sondergaard as Emily during the séance sequence.
