The Canterville Ghost: Adapted for Modern Readers
When the American Otis family buys the English mansion Canterville Chase, they ignore warnings that it is haunted. Far from being frightened by the ghost of Sir Simon, a centuries-old spirit, the Otises baffle him by offering stain remover for his bloodstains and lubricant for his noisy chains. While the family's mischievous twins terrorize the specter, he falls into despair. Only the compassion of young Virginia can help the tormented ghost find redemption and eternal rest in this clever satire about cultural clashes.
