Trivia
Though Bud Abbott's character in this film was named Peter Patterson and Lou Costello's character's name was Freddie Franklin, they addressed each other by their own, real names ("Heeeeey Abbott!") throughout the entire picture. The credits are the only place where their characters' names are used. See more »Goofs
When Abbott and Costello are eating the hamburgers and trying to distract each other by pointing out beautiful women in order to slip the other the cursed medallion, they call each other by their real names, not their characters' names. See more »Crazy Credits
In the final credits, the boys are listed with fake character names. Throughout the movie, they use their real names. See more »Soundtracks
"You Came A Long Way From St. Louis"Written by Bob Russell and John Benson Brooks

A formulistic entry into the Abbott and Costello Meet... series. Lou sees moving corpses, hidden passageways, etc., while Bud disbelieves everything. Although mildly amusing, it doesn't hold up to their earlier films.
