The Munsters: Munster Masquerade (1964) (TV)

Synopsis [spoilers]: Marilyn's boyfriend Tom persuades his parents to invite the Munsters for their masquerade ball. They leave Eddie with a nanny. Herman goes dressed in a medieval armor (King Arthur, they say), Lily goes as a shepherdess (Little Bo Beep, they say), Grandpa as Napoleon, Marilyn and Tom as pilgrims (the Aldens, they say). Tom's father masquerades as Frankenstein's monster; when Herman sees him he comments that he knows that face from somewhere; Herman also asks him why he is not wearing a costume, which is taken as an insult. Herman wins the prize for best costume: when he takes off the helmet, people remark that he is wearing a mask under a mask; Lily is insulted by that remark; the Munsters leave. The nanny praises Eddie to his mother for his good behavior; she only got a little scared when he howled at the moon.

Saw it dubbed in Portuguese.
