The Munsters: Love Comes to Mockingbird Heights (1965) (TV)

Synopsis [spoilers]: The Munsters get a package from Uncle Gilbert: it's a box full of gold coins; Uncle Gilbert says he is arriving soon for a visit. They decide to keep the money in the bank and call them to send someone to transport it. The bank submanager and Marilyn start a romance, but the guy is only after her money. He convinces her to elope. The Munsters are warned of his monetary motivations by a colleague of his. Grandpa tries a spell that would temporarily send her to old Transylvania, but it fails and instead all of them but Herman are transported to a hotel in Kansas. When Marilyn's suitor comes in through Marilyn's bedroom window that night, he finds Herman sleeping on her bed; he gets scared and flees. The Munsters fly back from Kansas; Marilyn is broken-hearted but will live. Uncle Gilbert arrives: he is the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

Saw it dubbed in Portuguese.
