The Canterville Ghost, Chapter 2: riassunto
Chapter 2 di 7 · 5 min per leggere: chapter
In Chapter 2, the returning bloodstain draws the Otis family's interest, and a midnight encounter confirms the ghost's presence without frightening Mr. Otis. After receiving an offer of chain oil and dodging a pillow, the ghost retreats, recalls his past successes in terrifying people, and resolves to take revenge.
Cosa succede
- The bloodstain returns on three mornings despite Washington's cleaning and Mr. Otis's locking the library.
- After an ordinary evening, Mr. Otis wakes at one o'clock to clanking chains and opens his door to the ghost.
- Mr. Otis calmly offers oil for the noisy chains, leaves the bottle, and returns to bed.
- The offended ghost throws down the bottle, dodges a pillow from two small figures, and escapes through the paneling.
- In a secret chamber, the ghost recalls his terrifying achievements and plans revenge until daylight.
