Overview

The film features the slapstick comedy team known as The Three Stooges, consisting of Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Shemp Howard. It marks the 168th entry in the series of 190 shorts the group produced for the studio. The plot follows the trio as they work as movers for an express company. On a rainy night, they are sent to a spooky old house to collect various items, including a suit of armor. The armor is haunted by the ghost of Sir Tom, who refuses to leave his residence. The ghost actively foils the movers' attempts to remove the suit and eventually threatens to skewer them with a sword. The narrative concludes with the revelation that the events were merely a bedtime story being told by the men to their sons, who are also portrayed by the Stooges. The cast also includes Phil Arnold. The film has a runtime of 16 minutes.
