Description:

In the quirky, whodunit comedy 'Lost Caverns Hotel,' we follow Freddie Phillips, a simple-minded bellhop at the eponymous hotel who finds himself at the center of a murder investigation. Despite his limited cognitive abilities, Freddie remains an enigma to both Inspector Wellman and the suspicious Swami Talpur. As the comedy of errors unfolds, the charismatic Inspector attempts to employ hypnosis in hopes of eliciting a confession from Freddie. However, it becomes quickly apparent that Swami's plan backfires as Freddie proves too dim-witted for the trickery. With the investigation still wide open, Inspector Wellman takes advantage of Freddie's innocence and decides to use him as bait in a clever ploy to catch the real killer, whose identity remains hidden until the final act. Amidst a backdrop of humor, intrigue, and unexpected twists, 'Lost Caverns Hotel' unravels the mystery surrounding Freddie and the enigmatic murder case that thrusts him into the limelight.
