Question

summary of canterville ghost chapter 5

Answer 1

Horace B. Otis and his family move into the canterville chase despite the warnings of lord canterville himself. The house is haunted by the ghost of sir simon, who killed his wife there in 1575.
Otis's housekeeper claims that the blood stain in the living room dates back to the day of the murder. Otis scoffs at this and clean up, but the stain reappears the morning after. Later it's revealed that the ghost used Virginia Otis's paints to recreate the stain.
