The book tells a story about a rich man from New York, who wants to buy a house in a coutryside outside London. When he arrive there, the Canterville Chase, with his family, he saw a ghost in the middle of the night. But he wasn't afraid, he just talks to ghost. His family wasn't afraid too, they laugh at the ghost. Then all the family returnes to the bed. Later, we know that the ghost wasn't happy because he scaried everyone, but not this family. Next, I think the man talks to the ghost, like a friend, and he decoveried that the ghost only scary people because he had same problem in his lfe. After this "talk", the ghost stoped to scary people.

The book "The Canterville Ghost" tells us about a house,that there are a lot of things that make us scary.Mr Hiram B. Otis buys the house,and after some days he sees the ghost,but,Mr Hiram B. Otis wasn't afraid of the ghost.

The main charaters are:Mr Hiram B. Otis,Lord Canterville,Mrs Umney and the Canterville Ghost.

Mr Hiram B. Otis is American,Lord Canterville is from England and Mrs Umney is American too.

In the library was a blood stain,so Mr Hiram B. Otis asked if Mrs Umney could clean the blood stain,but,Mrs Umney said it couldn't because the blood stain was there for more than three hundred years.So Washignton Otis said that have a great remover from America,he cleand the blood but in the next day the blood stain reapered.So when they were sleeping the ghost apeared,but,Mr Hiram B.

I think the ghost will be a very nice person and he says that he wouldn't scary anyone.

The Lord Canterville tries to scare Mr Otis, but he is not afraid, and the Canterville ghost is angry and decided to work hard.
I think the ghost will try to kill the son of Mr Otis.

The book tells the story of the family who wanted to move to a house in England, but there was a ghost, The Canterville Ghost.
The first night at the house the family saw the ghost. First, they were scared but then Mr. Otis was very gentle and the two young boys threw the pillows at the ghost and laughed.
The ghost was very surprised because everybody who sees him be very scared.
In my opinion the ghost will be very gentle too and the family will help him because he wants to.

The book is so good,but I don`t like some books of terror.In my opinion this book it`s not a terror.

Anônimo disse...

I read the canterville ghost and I think it's not a very exciting story.it's a little boring for a horror story.

Anônimo disse...

the story is not so good because it is too small and I didn't like so much the ending of the book!
I think that the vocabulary of the book is so simple, and I liked it.
