The Skipper on Gilligan's Island was always freaked out by voodoo. I don't think there's voodoo in the South Pacific but that's where he claimed where he picked up his voodoo phobia. As I was watching this episode of The Hardy Boys set in New Orleans, I can't say as I blame the Skipper for his fear of voodoo. There's freaky stuff going on. Not that there isn't always freaky stuff going on during any given Mardi Gras.
Frank and Joe open a coffin. The coffin squeaks. Has there ever been a coffin opened in a movie or TV show that hasn't squeaked?
There's nothing in the coffin because this is a Hardy Boys episode and a rotting corpse would be most unlikely.
Frank and Joe encounter Nancy Drew. They start singing It's a Small World After All. They actually didn't know it was Nancy right away because she was wearing a mask. When her mask was removed I thought: "That's not Nancy Drew! She doesn't resemble Bonita Granville in the slightest." The new Nancy Drew is cute but she doesn't have much screen presence.
Ray Milland and his mid-Atlantic accent are in this first of two parts episode. You know he's the bad guy because in typical Hardy Boys fashion there's nobody else to be the bad guy. Although the episode ends with him supposedly dead, you know he's not really dead because he's the bad guy and it's a two part episode.
Fun to see and hear Bobby Troup perform in Voodoo Doll, part one.
