The Little Ghost lives in the castle of Eulenstein. It awakens for precisely one hour after the clock strikes midnight. Despite the warnings of a friend, Mr. Uhu Schuhu, the ghost would like to see the world by daylight once. Meanwhile, Karl, Hannes and Sophie go on a nightly excursion to the castle, where they have their first encounter with the ghost.\r\nThe following day, the ghost wakes up at twelve o'clock - noontime. Its joy about this soon passes, as - discolored black by the first sunray - it scares the town's inhabitants and causes a commotion. Chased by the police, the ghost asks the children for help.
