Synopsis:
Steve Trevor and Diana Prince spot counterfeiter Boss Brekel. They follow him, but lose the trail near the Holliday Girls' haunted house. Diana searches the house, but she finds no trace of Brekel. Steve and Diana then learn that Brekel's counterfeiting is having a serious effect on the economy.
While waiting for Brekel to surface Diana attends the Holliday College play. Tress Akter, one of the actresses, is upset that she lost a role to another actress. To get even Tress kidnaps the girl and ties her up in the haunted house. Diana looks for the girl as Wonder Woman. Both the girl, Marcy Young, and Wonder Woman are captured by Brekel, who is operating his counterfeiting ring in a secret room under the house.
Tress eventually confesses to her abduction of Marcy. Etta and the Holliday Girls go to the rescue, but they too are caught. Tress herself finally succeeds in rescuing the girls by thwarting the gangsters. Wonder Woman then finishes off the counterfeiting operation.
