Blondie Has Servant Trouble

Things kick off when Blondie Bumstead insists that her husband press his boss, Mr. Dithers, for a raise so she can hire a maid. But Dithers has no time for salary disputes: his construction firm is saddled with an unsaleable old mansion that is rumored to be haunted. To prove the haunting theory groundless, Dithers asks the Bumstead family to spend a night in the crumbling mansion, with a retinue of servants included in the bargain.

9/10

Weird seeing probably the most bizarre of the Blondie films I've seen thus far (I only have the first 10 of the 28 films that were made from 1938-1950), as the Bumstead family are tricked by Dagwood's boss, Mr. Dithers, into staying at a mansion rumoured to be haunted. Still enjoyable fun, that's short and sweet and doesn't outstay its welcome.
