What it is: Betty Boop cartoon

Betty visits a medium and has her fortune read on the crystal ball.

On top of the spiritualism inherent in the plot, the cartoon also features a gaggle of ghosts pursuing Betty and Bimbo. The cartoon itself is okay, but it’s certainly not one of the better Betty Boop cartoons. It has its share of bizarre moments, but in comparison to titles like BIMBO’S INITIATION, it’s very mild. My favorite moment involves the sinking of a ship at the beginning of the crystal ball gazing.
