Scottish gentleman Robert Donat sells his castle to visiting Americans pretty Jean Parker and her businessman father Eugene Pallette. A ghost walks the halls at the stroke of midnight, a relative of Donat who died a coward's death in battle over a century ago. The ghost is tasked with getting an apology from the descendant of another family who disgraced the family name. Parker's father decides to move the castle to Florida as a publicity stunt, and the ghost comes along. Jean falls in love with the Scotsman, and his lookalike ghost, leading to some situational comedy. It all gets worked out in the end of course, in this lighthearted fantasy romance.
