Summary:
The fun begins as the unsuspecting Otis family moves into the stately, rambling rooms of Canterville Hall where young Virginia meets up with the castle's resident specter: the 400-year-old ghost of Sir Simon de Canterville. But while Sir Simon does his moaning, chain-rattling best to frighten the newcomers, Virginia soon befriends him and learns his sorrowful secret: unless a pure-hearted mortal agrees to plead his case before the dreaded Angel of Death, Sir Simon will be doomed to haunt the Hall for eternity.
