Quiz
The Andrews Sisters were brought in after filming wrapped and the final nightclub footage was edited in after the film's completion.

Blooper
Near the end when Ferdie is sitting at the desk and the left candle is sliding across the table, and the right candle is moving up and down, the strings used are clearly visible.

Citazioni
Ferdie: Look, from now on, keep one eye on that candle, another eye on that one, and with the other eye watch me!

Instant Classic!

Although released after IN THE NAVY, this was Abbott and Costello's first film made after BUCK PRIVATES. It's also the first film where they get total top billing(in ONE NIGHT IN THE TROPICS they were supporting players, in BUCK PRIVATES although they have top billing in the opening credits they do not in the end credits, and in IN THE NAVY they share top billing with Dick Powell). This film was the first of their horror-comedies, and Lou's frightened reactions were so hilarious, all films that followed featured at least one scene where Costello gets scared, no matter what the film was about. The film is a very clever, "Old Dark House" type of film, with an excellent cast. Most notable is the beautiful Evelyn Ankers(one of Universal's most famous scream queens) as one of the strangers trapped in the house with Bud and Lou. Everything about this film is great. No complaints on my part!
