The plot is based on the German film Geheimnis des Blauen Zimmers, made the previous year. Universal remade it twice : as The Missing Guest in 1938 and as Murder in the Blue Room in 1944 ; the latter is played mostly as a comedy with songs, though still largely faithful to the original plot. Plot A woman 's suitor challenges his two rivals to each spend a night in a room in which several murders occurred years before at 1 a.m. The suitor, Tommy, sleeps there on the first night but disappears at 1 a.m. Then the second man sleeps there on the second night. At 12 : 30 a.m, he starts playing the piano, but is shot half an hour later. As these events occur, a police investigation leads to several answers to several mysteries. On the fifth night, the third man sleeps in the Blue Room. However, he places a dummy in an armchair and conceals himself behind a coat. At 1 a.m, a revolver pokes round the door and fires at the dummy. The man and several police officers jump out of their hiding places. After a furious gunfight, the villain is apprehended and it turns out to be none other than Tommy, the first suitor, who had ostensibly disappeared.
