Not so long ago in the south of England, a new block of flats was built in a tiny village just near the town of Ascot. The people who lived in the village were very upset because the builders had to knock down a famous old haunted house that had been there for over three hundred years. The ghost of the house was very angry that he had to move from Canterville Chase to the new Canterville Gardens. One of the families who came to live in the new flats had moved all the way from America. Mr and Mrs Otis had four children ― two teenagers, Washington and Virginia, and two twin boys.
