Although in summer the streaming platforms release less news, some highly anticipated series such as season 2 of Heartstopper, the third installment of Only murders in the building, the second installment of The Bear and the comedy The Canterville Ghost stand out.
Regarding the latter, the streaming platform Filmin has just released on Tuesday, August 15, exclusively in Spain, the British series The Canterville Ghost. This new adaptation of Oscar Wilde’s work has been taken to film and television on multiple occasions and has now been adapted into an original miniseries of only 4 episodes that take place today, during the four seasons of the same year.
An original miniseries that has been written by Jude Tindall, screenwriter of the hit filmin Padre Brown, and has been directed by Suri Krishnamma and Paul Gibson.
The Canterville Ghost
A castle with a built-in ghost
Although the series has a different approach to the original, the plot is the same as always. As Filmin’s synopsis explains: “An American family acquires a castle in the UK that comes with a built-in tenant, a ghost named Sir Simon de Canterville. This nobleman despairs at the optimism of the Otis family, especially Hiram, the patriarch, who refuses to be afraid of him. Ultimately, the eldest daughter of the family, Virginia, could hold the key to Simon de Canterville’s eternal peace.”
The tech billionaire buying Canterville Chase is unaware that the mansion is home to a malevolent family ghost, which has haunted the house for centuries. The protagonists of this series will have to find out what Canterville Chase is really going on. In the end, perhaps the key for Sir Simon de Canterville to finally find eternal peace may be in the eldest daughter of the family, Virginia…
