The Otis family includes Mr. and Mrs. Otis, their eldest son Washington, their daughter Virginia and the Otis twins.

At first, none of the Otis family believes in ghosts but shortly after they move in, none of them can deny the presence of Sir Simon de Canterville.

Mrs. Otis notices a mysterious bloodstain on the floor and comments that “She does not at all care for bloodstains in the living room”, Mrs. Umney, the housekeeper, tells her that the bloodstain is evidence of the ghost and cannot be removed.

Washington Otis, the eldest son, suggests that the stain will be removed with Pinkerton’s Champion Stain Remover and Paragon Detergent.

When the ghost makes his first appearance, Mr. Otis promptly gets out of bed and pragmatically offers the ghost Tammany Rising Sun Lubricator to oil his chains.

Angrily, the ghost throws the bottle and runs into the corridor.
