Plot
[edit]The gang decides to run away from home and go shoot Indians, despite their parents' warnings. Traveling at night in the rain proves to be to eerie for the gang. They seek refuge into a nearby house, unaware that the home is actually an inventor's model for a gimmick-laden "magnetic house" in the process of being sold to an amusement park. The terrifying contrivances frighten the gang beyond their wits and they attempt to flee. Their parents eventually arrive to remedy the situation and end up getting involved with the gimmickry as well.
