It is the 148th short film released by Columbia Pictures starring the comedians, who released 190 short films for the studio between 1934 and 1959. PlotThe Stooges are private detectives that are hired to track down a kidnapped girl name Mary Bopper (Norma Randall), daughter of George B. Bopper. They decide to trace Bopper back to where she was last seen, which leads them to mad scientist Dr. Jeckyl (Philip Van Zandt) and his assistant, Mr. Hyde (Tom Kennedy). There is also a gorilla kept imprisoned in the house for experimental purposes. The Stooges arrive to rescue the kidnapped girl disguised as door-to door pie salesmen. Production notesSpooks! was the first of two Stooge shorts (the other being Pardon My Backfire) made by Columbia Pictures in 3D, after the 3D craze of 1953 began with Bwana Devil. It originally premiered on May 20, 1953 with the Columbia western Fort Ti (also in 3D).[1]Both the Columbia 3D Edmund O'Brien thriller Man in the Dark and Spooks! were originally sepia toned in order to allow for more light to pass through the Polaroid filters necessary for the dual-strip 3D projection method of that time. The process did not work as expected and the idea was dropped after these two productions.[1] This is also the first short in the series filmed for flat wide-screen. Although some films of this period were composed for the Academy aspect ratio and released in wide-screen during the confusion{{Clarify|date=January 2010}}, Spooks! and future releases were composed at 1.85:1, Columbia's house ratio. Spooks! was released just 31 days after it was produced and holds the record of being the Shemp film released the quickest after production. This is due largely to Columbia Pictures wanting to cash in on the 3D craze.{{Citation needed|date=March 2016}} In popular cultureSpooks! was one of five Stooge films included in the TBS 1995 Halloween special The Three Stooges Fright Night.
