Larry Lawrence, sought in connection with a murder he didn’t commit, eludes New York police by hiding in a steamer trunk bound for Cuba. The trunk’s owner, pretty Mary Carter (Paulette Goddard), is sailing to take possession of a “haunted” castle, but sensing that she may be in danger, Larry and his valet Alex precede her to the island, which is inhabited by a zombie, and perhaps even a flesh-and-blood fiend.
THE GHOSTBREAKERS was the second paring of Hope and Goddard and came from an era where horror-comedy was a big box office draw. Join them for a classic tale filled with earthly and un-earthly foes as they try to keep from ending up as a ghosts themselves!
