Shake, Rattle, & Roll happen to manage a hotel whose clientele, understandably, consists of other ghosts and things that go bump in the night. Roll (Joe E. Ross, ex-Hong Kong Phooey) is the chief cook. Shake (Paul Winchell) & Rattle (Len Weinrib) man the switchboard and the desk, though both are at the switchboard as "Guess What's Coming to Dinner" starts. It's a variant on the age-old plot of days gone by, in which our ghosts babysit........well, I wish I could tell you.
Edit, 6/1/22: The video has been privatized. In its place is the title card:
If any one story defined the term, suspension of disbelief, this might qualify.

I think I may have lost an IQ point watching this!
Good heavens!! The problem isn't violence in cartoons, it's the constant underestimation of the viewer!! Sure a 5 year old might find it funny, but once he's 6 or 7 he's gone! Not to mention the show just doesn't have the staying power of far more superior offerings.
I don't think it's so much that, but the writers recycling older ideas from other sources. Parents will recognize the plot and spoil the story for their kids.
