Creeps is the 168th short subject starring American slapstick comedy team the Three Stooges. The trio made a total of 190 shorts for Columbia Pictures between 1934 and 1959.
[edit] Plot
The Stooges tell their three sons (also the Stooges) about the time they had job as moving men assigned to the haunted Smorgasbord Castle. All goes well until a clanking suit of armor inhabited by the ghost of Sir Tom (voiced by Phil Arnold) instructs the Stooges to leave him be. Shemp, Larry and Moe all take turns trying to move Tom but he spooks the Stooges away.
[edit] Notes
- Creeps is a reworking of 1949's The Ghost Talks using ample stock footage from the original film.
