Despite some cheesy effects and bloopers this is a classic! Don Knotts is at his finest when he's offered a newspaper writer contract if he spends the night in the town haunted house. At the beginning of the movie, he is driving past the old mansion when he thinks he sees a murder. After blowing the whole shebang way out of proportion, he finds himself back in his old typesetting job. The janitor provokes Knott's boss to convince him to spend the murder night in the mansion Lot's of great character actors add to this, and Vic Mizzy's classic background and organ music add to the humor. Definitely the best scenes are when he's giving the speech to the chamber of commerce (let me clarify this...), when he's on a date (I just LOVE good food...) and when he's in the organ loft with the judge. If you haven't seen thins, go buy it, everyone will laugh age four to one hundred and four!
