From LibriVox:
The American Minister and his family have bought the English stately home Canterville Chase, complete with the ghost of Sir Simon de Canterville—blood-stains, clanking chains and all. But these modern Americans will have no truck with ghostly goings-on, and set out to beat the spectre at his own game. (Summary by David Barnes)
