In common with many cartoons based around the character of Popeye the Sailor, the plot involves Popeye and his bearded burly rival Bluto both competing for the attentions of the woman Olive Oyl. Bluto soon gains the advantage but Popeye wins out in the end. Unusually for a Popeye cartoon, at no point does the hero gain superhuman strength by eating a can of spinach. The film is now in the public domain in the United States.

  • It is Halloween night, and Olive is reading ghost stories to Popeye and Bluto. Both men want to have alone time with Olive, with Popeye wondering why Bluto has not gone home yet and Bluto wondering what to do to get rid of Popeye. Bluto decides to stage various pranks (a headless man, an animated skeleton, and a sheet-over-balloon ghost) to scare Olive and Popeye. He pins the blame on Popeye, whom Olive kicks out of her house, and then Bluto goes to comfort her. Popeye gets back at Bluto by going into Olive's bedroom through her window, and using a jar of vanishing cream to make himself invisible. He scares both Olive and Bluto (mainly Bluto) and the latter eventually runs out of Olive's house. Popeye reveals himself and Olive kisses him for saving her, getting red lipstick all over his face. Popeye turns to the audience and says, "Loves them ghosks!"
