Boris Karloff comes to in his coffin and learns he's been dead for a week. Through a crystal ball, he watches a rat's nest of characters descend on his old haunted house for the reading of the will. They include a boy and a girl, a crooked lawyer, an assassin and his accomplices, a motorcycle gang, a truckload of kids just up from the beach and a gorilla. There are songs for the kids to gyrate to, and a lot of moronic slapstick as the characters chase each other through the house and into the chamber of horrors downstairs. The studio was American International, in case you couldn't tell. Boris seems amused by it all, maybe because he was smart enough to stay in his crypt, watching the nonsense from a distance, through his crystal ball.
