Synopsis

Murder has been done and practically everybody's hair has been standing on end in the castled house of Dr. De Former.

The periodical appearances of a Blue Ghost are responsible for this.

Inspector Wise, an ace investigator, is put on the case and after the required number of screams, thrills and shivers, succeeds in unravelling what appeared to be a hopeless mystery.

The play is packed full of all the elements that go toward making a hair-raising and hilarious entertainment.
