 PLOT

The story of “The Canterville Ghost ”talk about one family, (Otis family) who come from modern democratic America and want to live in a old house, in the middle of the countryside, in the old-fashioned England.
They were warned that the old house was haunted by the Canterville Ghost, called Simon. He was bad because he murdered his wife and frightened the people who entered in the house. But the family was American and the Americans don’t believe in ghosts, so they decided to buy the house.
As soon as they arrived they looked a quick change of the weather, in fact suddenly it began to rain.
From that day many strange and mysterious things happened, for example there was a bloody stain in the library and when they tried to clean it, it appeared again and changed colour.
One night Sir Simon, the ghost, appeared: he was a old man, he wore old-fashioned clothes with chains hung from his wrists and ankles. He tried to frighten the Otis family, because it was his job, but every times they stayed absolutely calm, on the contrary their sons joked with him, especially the twins.
The ghost was too angry but at last he didn’t frighten them because he was too tired.
One day Mr and Mrs Otis’ daughter, Virginia, disappeared. She was the only person who didn’t joke with the ghost, in fact that night the ghost asked to her to help him to found the peace for ever in the garden of the death.
So Virginia decided to help him and she cried and prayed for him, because she understood the ghost was good.
Finally the ghost founded the peace and Virginia appeared.
In the end Cecil, a duke married Virginia and ask to her if she wanted some children and they went to live alone, while the family lived happily without the ghost.
