O'Reilly Castle, set on a small Irish isle, has been occupied by the family of Wee Lady Betty (Love) for generations. However, when the actual owner of the castle dies, the ownership is transferred to his heir, Roger O'Reilly (Borzage). In an attempt to scare away the new owner, Betty briefly tricks him into thinking that the castle is haunted, but he falls in love with her.[4][5][6]
Village scenes were filmed on the lot of Triangle Studio in Culver City, California.[8] The village set had previously been used for the Bessie Barriscale film Wooden Shoes (1917) and In Slumberland (1917).[9]
