A whimsical early cartoon that plays haunted-house tropes for slapstick comedy and visual gags, with skeletons and supernatural elements treated as playful rather than genuinely frightening.

Mickey seeks shelter from a storm in a house that turns out to be haunted. The skeletons command him to play the organ; they dance and play along.
