Two women and a man, attempting to have dinner, find themselves confronted with magical happenings: the chairs move, the soup tureen grows, boots appear from it, the table legs change length, the table appears and reappears. A ghost, dancing on the table, turns into a box of dynamite and explodes, and the man begins tumbling manically around the room.
The film was released by Méliès's Star Film Company and is numbered 311 in its catalogues.[1] It was imitated by Edwin S. Porter for the Edison Manufacturing Company film An Animated Luncheon.[2]
