A wealthy man named Laurel has been murdered, and a rather aggressive police detective has corralled all the relatives in the spooky old house to determine which one of them did it: a parody of several serious murder thrillers at the time. Stan and Olly are among the suspects.
There is a rather unfeminine looking housekeeper, played by the male actor Dell Henderson, who is in league with an accomplice to get the money. He tries to kill Oliver, but is unmasked, or rather unwigged, at the very end of the film. There's not a very satisfactory explanation of the preceding events at this stage, however, so don't expect a Hercule Poirot style elaboration of all the clues you have missed.
