Midnight Frolics (1938)

Directed by Ub Iwerks

Animation | Fantasy | Short

Overview

A mouse and a cuckoo bird, skeptical about the existence of ghosts, are startled by a midnight visit from a sextet of spirits, all men who once wooed a Florador show-girl. The specters do a song-and-dance routine from the gay-90’s era of show-business. They all fade away at dawn, leaving the mouse and the cuckoo bird less-convinced skeptics than they were before the witching hour.

Viewing Notes

Saturday morning cartoon: this is a great one! Ghosts inhabit an old house when another ghost knocks on the door seeking work to haunt the house. A 16mm collector scanned his print and shared online. Neat stuff
