The Canterville Ghost
by Marisha Chamberlain
Synopsis
A no-nonsense American family buys an old mansion in rural England, scoffing at warnings of a fierce and violent resident ghost.
The spirited Americans -- Mother, Father, young Virginia, and her mischievous little twin brothers -- may have found their match in the equally spirited and clever ghost, who is determined to scare them out or worse.
He's outnumbered, however, and in the end, kind-hearted Virginia helps him fulfill the terms of the legend that allow him release into the afterlife.
