A-Haunting We Will Go (1942)


Stan and Ollie get involved with con men, crooks, a genial magician, and two interchangeable coffins with disastrous but funny results.

Weary Laurel and Hardy comedy disappoints with rare humorous moments and a standard crime plot.

Halliwell*: "Nothing whatever to do with haunting: a poor comedy with no typical material for the stars, but interesting as a record of the touring show of Dante the Magician."

Maltin*1/2: "One of Stan and Ollie's poorest films...No magic in this turkey."
