In the film, the members of a club are vacationing in a summer camp. The area is reputed to have its own "monster killer", and suspicions fall on a strange man who has taken residence in a long-abandoned house.
The film was intended to combine the most popular stars of Monogram Pictures, Lugosi and the East Side Kids. The film was released shortly before Halloween. The film marked the last film appearance of Donald Haines, who died in the Battle of Kasserine Pass (1943). [2]
