The Cat and the Canary

Ten years after the death of millionaire Cyrus Norman, his will is read to his six relatives, including Joyce Norman and Wally Campbell. Organized by Norman's lawyer Crosby, the six convene at Norman's eerie New Orleans Gothic mansion. As the reading unfolds, the superstitious housekeeper proclaims that someone will be dead by midnight. When Joyce is named the sole inheritor, Wally fears for her safety, and the tension escalates when Crosby himself is found dead.
