The Black Imp

A guest checks into a hotel room, unaware it is inhabited by a mischievous black imp. The imp takes delight in making furniture vanish, stack itself, and teleport around the room. The traveler is initially bewildered and then terrified as the imp reveals itself, causing pandemonium. The film is a silent, fantastical short showcasing early special effects as the man tries to deal with the supernatural nuisance.
