It is the first film in Van Beuren's Tom and Jerry series, later re-issued as "Dick and Larry".
In their first film, Tom and Jerry are taxi drivers at the train station on a stormy day, waiting for a fare.
A train comes up, and stops with an engine hauling a coach to let off two identical-looking men, who come out, similar to the pair from the Farmer Alfalfa cartoon Wooden Money.
As they walk, Tom is mortified as Jerry is interested as a giant bat-like creature appears in front of them.
Odd things that happen include: ghosts standing behind them, finding a skeleton playing a piano while another skeleton dances to the music, a glove dancing, and a blackface quartette of skeletons singing a song, which includes a few lines from versions of "Golden Slippers", such as a "long white robe" and a "starry crown", and to stop gambling.
