Larry Abbot, played by Gene Wilder, and Vickie Pearlee, played by Gilda Radner, are co stars in a radio series called th Manhattan Mystery Theater. They decide to get married, but this triggers panic attacks and a speech impediment in Larry, which threatens to wreck his radio career. Larry’s uncle, Dr Paul Abbot, decides to treat Larry using shock therapy. Larry’s decision to hold the wedding at the castle where he was brought up gives Paul the perfect opportunity to create the shock therapy. The shock therapy involves all kinds of ghostly goings on, perpetrated by Larry’s somewhat eccentric relatives and their staff.
Most of the film takes place inside, on what were probably stage sets. However, the external scenes were shot at Knebworth House. In particular, when the couple arrive in the midst of a storm, they arrive at the front door of Knebworth House. In the middle of the movie two policeman arrive at the house through the archway of Knebworth house. The house also featured in the opening credits.
