Plots(1)
The East Side Kids are off for summer camp when they're ardently warned of a murderous monster on the loose in the area. Shortly afterwards, the boys have a run-in with a mysterious magician, Nardo (Bela Lugosi), and his odd sidekick Luigi (Angelo Rossitto). They're convinced that Nardo is the monster vulture they've heard about but can't prove it, so they turn to legendary mystery writer and monster expert Dr. Von Grosch (Dennis Moore) for help. Von Grosch then leads the East Siders to the eerie Billings' mansion where sinister goings-on occur, including Pee-Wee's (David Gorcey) sudden disappearance, prompting Muggs (Leo Gorcey) and the rest of the boys to concoct a ruse to corner the killer.
