Lord and Lady Canterville lived in a big old castle. There were some strange noises down the corridor and some blood on the floor. They decided to sell their house.
The Otis family bought it: they were American, they came from a modern coutry and they didn't believe in ghosts.
Their children saw the blood on the floor in the library and an old woman told them about ghost that stayed in the house. It was the Simon of Canterville's ghost, that killed his wife in 1575. He died nine years later and now all is strange and scared in the house; they couldn't clean the floor beacuse the blood riappeared.
One night, they saw the ghost and laughed very much! So the ghost was angry!
Later, he said that he coldn't sleep because he made a big mistake when he was alive. So, Virginia, one of the Otis' children, helped Simon and she was so satisfied! She said her family that the ghost was happy and now he could sleep!
