The Canterville Ghost background

The Canterville Ghost

A hapless American family inherits a British mansion, unaware that it's haunted by the restless spirit of Sir Simon de Canterville, who's desperate to find a brave descendant to break the family curse.

The ghost of Sir Simon de Canterville, a poor and restless spirit, has been wandering his castle for years, seeking a brave descendant to break the curse by completing a courageous feat. When an American family takes up residence, they find the ghost more amusing than terrifying, but a young girl in the family holds the key to his liberation - if she's willing to take the risk.
