What strange events happened when the Otis family came to canterville chase?

When the Otis family arrived at Canterville Chase, they encountered the ghost of Sir Simon, who had haunted the estate for centuries. Instead of fearing him, the Otis family, particularly the children, treated him with indifference and even humor, offering him lubricating oil for his squeaky chains. Sir Simon's attempts to scare them failed miserably, leading to a series of comedic and bizarre interactions. Ultimately, the ghost found himself increasingly frustrated by their lack of fear and respect for his haunting abilities.
