Porky Pig (Mel Blanc) is a cop on the beat, sent to a reputedly haunted house. Oh, there is a ghost (Pinto Colvig), but this wouldn't be the last time Porky would set foot in a haunted house. Here's "Jeepers Creepers":
I'm not sure if this has been playing anywhere in recent years, since the ghost ends up covered in black smoke, leading to a mimic of Eddie "Rochester" Anderson at the end. Anderson, of course, would join Mel for "The Mouse That Jack Built" a few years later with the rest of the cast from The Jack Benny Program.
I recall seeing this back in the 70's. Silly.

The most recent time I saw this cartoon on TV (which was years ago, back when Nick and Nick@Nite were airing Looney Tunes, FTR) the network just cut the blackface part, superimposing an artificial iris out after the ghost gets doused with exhaust smoke.
So it's never aired on CN, even in that Toon Heads special I posted the other week. And even worse, largely forgotten by CN.
