Ten years after the death of millionaire Cyrus Norman, his will is to be read out to his six relatives, including Joyce Norman and Wally Campbell. Organized by Norman's lawyer, Crosby, the six meet at Norman's eerie New Orleans Gothic mansion. During the reading, the superstitious housekeeper declares that someone will be dead by midnight. Wally fears for Joyce when she is declared the sole inheritor, but all are alarmed when Crosby turns up dead.
Editor's Verdict
"The provided plot summary for 'The Cat and the Canary' details a mystery/horror scenario set in a mansion where an inheritance will is read, resulting in murder. There is absolutely no mention of the Christmas season, traditions, or relevant themes in the description. It fails to meet any criteria for being a Christmas movie."
