Bob Hope and Paulette Goddard's comic timing is excellent, and the works on which they are teamed together contain some of the funniest moments filmed by either actor. Hope plays Larry Lawrence, a New York City detective who becomes involved in a gangster-related hotel shoot-out. Believing he has killed a man, Lawrence hides in a trunk owned by Mary Carter (Goddard). When Lawrence gets out of the trunk, he finds himself on a steamboat, as Carter is en route to a castle which she has recently inherited on a small island off the coast of Cuba. While aboard the ship, Carter and Lawrence are aprised of rumors that the castle is haunted, but they remains steadfast in their will to visit it. Once there, many perilous and hilarious adventures await. THE GHOST BREAKERS is widely heralded as the best of Hope and Goddard's combined efforts.

Ghost Breakers Reviews:

"...Amiably directed by George Marshall, this breezy, timelessly amusing comedy re-teams Bob Hope and Paulette Goddard..." -- Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times

3 stars out of 5 -- "Knees knockin' teeth a-chatterin', Bob Hope and Willie Best put the fun into fear..."-- Total Film Staff, Total Film

This is the only Emmett Vogan video.

The movies were for family members. They loved them. Thank you, not sure what the problem was with the first credit card, but all worked out.

5 stars Hope at his best
I am a Bob Hope fan and found his work pre-TV to be his best. This is quintessential Hope exchanging quips with Pauline Goddard and his "man" Willie Best. It also has some pretty effective special effects and a good story line.
