CS #156Loose in London -Bowery Boys

is a 1953 American comedy film starring the Bowery Boys, in which Horace "Sach" Jones discovers he is the heir to a British fortune, leading the gang to a spooky London mansion. It is the thirtieth film in the popular series.
Plot Summary
The film's plot revolves around the unlikely premise that Sach (Huntz Hall) is a distant cousin and the rightful heir to a dying English earl (Walter Kingsford). The entire Bowery Boys gang, including their leader "Slip" Mahoney (Leo Gorcey) and Louie Dumbrowski (Bernard Gorcey), travels from New York to London to secure the inheritance.
Upon their arrival at the earl's old mansion, which features a dungeon and an ominous bell tower, they encounter a houseful of scheming and potentially dangerous relatives who want to stop Sach from inheriting the fortune. The situation quickly turns into an "old dark house" style comedy, as the boys navigate mysterious happenings, including a supposed ghost of an old hangman and various plots against them. The humor stems from the classic "fish out of water" scenario, with the American gang's antics clashing with their new, eerie English surroundings.
