Sir Simon de Canterville is the premier ghost in the British Isles, and exquisitely proud of his dastardly reputation. So when the Otis family leave America and move into the Canterville's abandoned family estate, Sir Simon prepares to give them the fright of their life. There's just one problem. The Otises aren't scared of ghosts. As the Otis family settle into the neighbourhood, they struggle with British customs and culture. Ghosts are easy. It's the unspoken British etiquette, extravagant ballroom dances and endless cricket matches that unnerve the Otises.
