In an old mansion set in the English countryside, a ghost from centuries past feels trapped in his miserable existence. Sir Simon, the wandering spirit, has haunted tenants for generations with his spectral appearance and lamentable history, but when an American family moves into the property, things do not go as he expected. The Otis family, modern and carefree, arrives with the intention of making the mansion their home, unaware that they are about to become the victims of a rather unconventional ghost.
Despite the terrifying appearances and the chills that should send anyone fleeing, the Otises are surprisingly indifferent to the specter's antics. Instead of being terrified, they respond with sarcastic remarks and treat Sir Simon as just another tenant. This peculiar relationship between the supernatural and the mundane turns into an absurdly charming comedy, where the ghost, desperate to regain his honor and find redemption, is forced to deal with the unusual way of life of his new housemates.
Laughter and life lessons intertwine as Sir Simon seeks a way to free himself from his curse, and the Otis family learns that even ghosts can have moments of vulnerability. With a mix of humor, heart, and a touch of the supernatural, this story reminds us that sometimes, even the scariest specters need a bit of understanding.
