カンタビル一家は300年も住みつく幽霊に辟易し、この大邸宅をアメリカ人一家に売りに出すことにした。幽霊を恐れないアメリカ人のヒラム・B・オーティスはこの家を幽霊付きで買うことを快く承諾する。オーティス一家を恐怖に奮い上がらせる、とびきりの計画を立てた幽霊たちだがアメリカ人はなかなか怖がってはくれない―特にやんちゃ坊主二人は。そしてかわいそうな幽霊たちには驚きの結末が待っていた。
There has been a ghost in the house for three hundred years, and Lord Canterville's family have had enough of it. So Lord Canterville sells his grand old house to an American family. Mr Hiram B. Otis is happy to buy the house and the ghost - because of course Americans don't believe in ghosts. The Canterville ghost has great plans to frighten the life out of the Otis family. But Americans don't frighten easily - especially not two noisy little boys - and the poor ghost has a few surprises waiting for him.
