I. A House with a Ghost
Mr Hiram Otis was the American Minister in London. In other words, he worked for the American government in England. When he bought Canterville Chase, everyone told him that he was making a big mistake. There was no doubt at all that the old house was haunted. A haunted house is a house with a ghost in it. Lord Canterville, the owner, was a very honest man, and he warned Mr Otis about it himself.
“We don’t live there ourselves any more,” said Lord Canterville. “My great-aunt, the old Duchess of Bolton, had a terrible fright there. One evening she was dressing for dinner, and two skeleton hands touched her shoulders. She never really got better. After that, none of our young servants wanted to stay. Several people in my family have seen the ghost.
