Harold Lloyd and Mildred Davis charm as newlyweds who inherit a mansion that may be… haunted. (Thunderclap, please.)
Actually, it’s a conspiracy to scam Mildred out of her money but getting there is all the fun. The short has two distinct parts: the first is taken up with Harold trying to win over a different rich girl, his failure and comical attempts at suicide. And then we’re off to that haunted mansion!
A real charmer with some clever title cards and sight gags in the bargain.
How does it end? Hover or tap below for a spoiler.
The villains are exposed and our couple lives happily ever after.
If it were a dessert it would be: Chocoflan. Two distinct parts, both delicious.

i always loved the work of Harold Lloyd
Yes indeed 🙂
I love comical ghost stories so love to see this one too. I like Harold Lloyd very much
It’s sort of a Scooby-Doo setup where the “ghosts” are the baddies in disguise. (This isn’t a spoiler as the scheme is shown from the beginning.) Very cute stuff and Harold and Mildred are dolls.
I love Harold, he is especially cute when he is in a film with Mildred.
Yes indeed!
