Spook busters: The Bowery Boys are recent graduates of Exterminating School, called upon by a real estate agent to rid an old weird house of all pests, including ghosts.
Hard boiled Mahoney: The Boys try to solve the mysterious disappearance of a beautiful woman. A cross between a comedy and a hard boiled detective drama.
Bowery buckaroos: The Bowery Boys head west to clear Louie of an old murder charge.
Smuggler's cove: Slip mistakenly believes he is the heir to Mahoney Manor, and discovers a load of smugglers in the hidden walls and tunnels of his new abode.
Ghost chasers: The Boys attempt to bring down a phony clairvoyant operation that controls all the spiritual mediums in the neighborhood.
Let's go Navy!: In an effort to find two sailors that robbed them, Slip, Sach and the boys willingly join the Navy. The trouble is that the two sailors aren't really sailors and aren't in the Navy at all.
Hold that line: The Boys make a bet as to which of them will make the best Ivy Leaguer, and Sach is able to invent a potion in chemistry class which makes him a star football player.
Loose in London: Sach learns that he is related to English nobility, and he and the gang realize Sir Percy's other relatives are not terribly keen on the idea of Sach becoming the sole heir to the Walshingham fortune.
Clipped wings: The Boys accidentally join the Air Force while trying to help out their friend Dave.
Private eyes: After being hit on the head, Sach can read minds. He uses his new skill to hunt out gangsters hiding out in a sanatorium.
Bowery Boys meet the monsters: When Slip and Sach check in with the weird Gravesend family to see if a lot they own can be used for local kids to play baseball, they encounter a family of mad scientists who want their brains.
