“MORE GHOULISH GLEE THAN WHEN THEY MET FRANKENSTEIN!”

A lawyer is found shot dead in his suite at the Lost Caverns Resort Hotel, and the last person known to have threatened him is Freddie Phillips (Lou Costello), a bellhop who had just been fired. Charles Barton sends Freddie and the detective Casey Edwards (Bud Abbott) through a hotel full of guests who all had a reason to dislike the victim. Casey needs Freddie to find the killer, and Freddie needs Casey to keep him out of jail.
