When Mr. H. H. H. H. H. H. H. H. H. H. H. H.R.M. B. Otis, the American minister, bought Cantaville Chase, everyone told him he was doing a very foolish thing, as there was no doubt at all that the place was haunted. Indeed, Lord Cantaville himself, who was a man of the most punctilious

honor, had felt it his duty to mention the fact to Mr. Otis when they came to discuss terms.

We have not cared to live in the place ourselves, said Lord Canterbury.

Since my great aunt, the dowager Duchess of Bolton, was frightened into a fit from which she never really recovered

by two skeleton hands being placed on her shoulders as she was dressing

for dinner.

And I feel bound to tell you, Mr Otis, that the ghost has been seen by several living members

of my family, as well as the rector of the parish. After the unfortunate

accident to the Duchess, none of our younger servants would stay with us and Lady

Canterbury often got very little sleep at night in consequence of the mysterious noises that came from the

corridor and the library.

My lord, answered the minister, I will take the furniture and the ghost evaluation.

I have come from a modern country where we have everything

money can buy and with all our spry young fellows painting the old world red and carrying off

your best actors and pre-medanas, I reckon if we're such a thing as a ghost in Europe we'd have it at home in a very short time in one of our public museums or on the road as a show

that was Oscar Wilde from his story, The Canterville Ghost, and you're joining us here at the Antiques Ghost Show, or the H.P. Lovecraft-com, I'm Chris Lackey. And I'm Chad Fifer. And who was that reading that we heard there?

And that is David Beer. He is joining us again for Aogost.

Aogost? The Return of Fantasmay. The Return phantasmay which I've been delighting in that

wonderful name that we have for this month. Thank you David for reading on the

topic of carrying off the best actors and I want to get into the story in a second but this comes up a lot why are why do you think or if you've even noticed there are so many British actors cast in American roles.

I noticed this as well.
