Shake, Rattle, and Roll: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Shake, Rattle, and Roll first aired in 1977. The show is mainly about a ghostly trio that live in an inn and are always scaring humans away so they don't bother them. However even though they are able to scare possible guests away a man by the name of Sidney Merciless always ends up showing up to attempt to catch the ghosts in some sort of trap (most of the time in his fishing net). In most of these shows the main problem has nothing to do with human guests, but deals with their ghostly guests ranging from normal ghosts to a giant chicken monster.
