Lil' Eightball, a darker-skinned version of Scrappy and Buddy of '30s cartoondom, is unafraid of "ectoplasmic figments of the imagination",but a bunch of silly spirits in a haunted house try to prove the opposite. Some of the cast appear "borrowed" from Disney's "Lonesome Ghosts", a film the ex-Disney director had previously worked on.
Although, some pre-World War II live-action "spook" comedies took on racial overtones, it is difficult to criticize animated shorts like this and "Jasper And The Haunted House", since they closely resemble "Lonesome Ghosts", "Shiver Me Timbers", "Scrappy's Ghost Story" and many other 'toons featuring a variety of human races and animal species. The minor discretion here may be Eightball's big lips and "hee-hee" jive-talk (provided by the great Mel Blanc). Universal bravely included this excellent cartoon, along with the naughtier "100 Pygmies And Andy Panda", on the recent DVD "Woody Woodpecker And Friends Vol. 2".
