Amazon.com: Remember watching this silly little comedy from your childhood? It may not have aged all that well, but is still goofy, good fun. Okay, so you can spot the stunt double, and Don Knotts's twitches are a little more obvious. Still, fans of his familiar routines will be comforted in knowing they can again watch their skinny underdog hero solve the ghost story while winning the prettiest girl in town. Knotts plays a trembling typesetter hoping to become a reporter by cracking the mystery of the local haunted house. To do so, he must spend a night there. Good-hearted, non-threatening, and completely gooey, this is the equivalent of light-weight cinematic junk food. -- Rochelle O'Gorman

This movie has you laughing the moment Don Knotts walks into the scene and you don't stop laughing until the credits starts rolling

My brother gave me this movie as a gift that he taped onto a VHS many years ago. I came across it recently and thought I would check to see if I could find it on DVD. Of course I found it on Amazon. Watched it with my son and husband, a first for my son. He loved it. Laughed through the whole thing. What a great Halloween movie for kids to watch because it is not scary. It's more of a comedy. Don Knotts is hilarious in this. This movie will never get old. It is a classic. This is one that you keep in the collection.

Like many of my generation, I grew up watching this movie many times, and becoming enamored of the comedic genius of Don Knotts. He's made a handful of enjoyable comedies along the way, but none can compare to "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken". Here, the writers & producers came up with an irresistible idea: Take the world's most jittery, nervous underdog (Knotts) and plop him in a story as a would-be reporter talked into staying overnight in the town's "haunted house" to solve a 20-year old murder/suicide mystery.
This movie has hardly a dull spot as it moves along at a nice clip, and is ... Read More
