Synopsis: Meek small town reporter Luther Heggs (Don Knotts) stirs up controversy when he spends the night in a haunted house on a bet and writes about the terrifying experiences he encountered there.

Final Mewsings: Filmmakers are grateful for the dubbing process since cats don’t usually screech while just walking.

Many thanks to our friend Ted Davis for reminding us of this Purr Blur!
