Poor Uncle Josh is trying to get to sleep, but being constantly bedevilled by a fellow in red long underwear with horns. A short early trick editing film using a stationary camera much more valuable for its historical, rather than entertainment value.

A 1900 title built around Fantástico, Horror comedy and Silent film. Directed by Edwin S. Porter.
