Plot Summary

Glimpy's surprisingly beautiful sister gets married to Jack, a young engineer, and will move to a 'bargain' suburban house neither has ever seen. During the honeymoon, Mugs orders the gang to fix up the house for the newlywed but mistakenly pick the 'haunted' house next door, which is occupied by some mysterious and nefarious live men, dodging in and out of secret panels - clearly up to no good. Written by Rod Crawford

Trivia First credited film role for Ava Gardner. See more »
Goofs In the credits, Bobby Stone is billed as playing "Dave," Bill Bates is billed as playing "Sleepy," and Billy Benedict is billed as playing "Benny." In actuality, Stone plays the role of "Rocky," and it's Bates who plays "Dave" (a character who is, indeed, defined by his sleepiness). Benedict indeed plays Benny, but several times he's called "Skinny," his character name in other movies. See more »
