The Canterville Ghost / [videorecording] / produced by Robert Benedetti ; written for television by Robert Benedetti ; directed by Syd Macartney ; by Anasazi Productions, Inc. in association with Signboard Hill Productions, Inc. DVD
The fun begins as the unsuspecting Otis family moves into the stately, rambling rooms of Canterville Hall where young Virginia meets up with the castle's resident specter: the 400-year-old ghost of Sir Simon de Canterville. But while Sir Simon does his moaning, chain-rattling best to frighten the newcomers, Virginia soon befriends him and learns his sorrowful secret: unless a pure-hearted mortal agrees to plead his case before the dreaded Angel of Death, Sir Simon will be doomed to haunt the Hall for eternity.
