A baby-boomer favorite from the mid-60’s Universal Studios assembly line. Fidgety small town typesetter Don Knotts spends the night in a haunted house and hilarity ensues. First in the series of comedies Knotts made for the big screen following his Emmy-winning role as Deputy Barney Fife of Mayberry. Vic Mizzy’s organ music score is a keeper. Knott’s TV co-star Andy Griffith godfathered this movie and contributed to the screenplay, an expansion of the 1963 Andy Griffith Show episode “Haunted House”, but insisted his Mayberry writers Everett Greenbaum and Jim Fritzell get sole credit.
