The third place is firmly held by Oscar Wilde’s The Canterville Ghost, which has been adapted for film and TV on several occasions. And in the vague distant fourth stands Henry James’s The Turn of the Screw, that has also appeared in a number of adaptations.
Speaking about ghosts, my favorite movie bears the same name “The Ghost”. Yeah, I know, what you’re gonna say (too cheesy, too phony, blah, blah, blah). Well, what’s the girl to do? If you add to this movie, others like “Dracula”, tv series “Angel” and “Buffy, the vampire slayer”, you can imagine, who you’re dealing with right now. I am also into genealogy, you can ask me about the line of British monarchs since 8 century or French kings starting with old Francia chieftains, and I will give you the right answer, even if you wake me up in the middle of the night.
When I work on building the genealogical tree, I go first through online databases. My favorite source, naturally is my funeral home directory, simply because it is a great place to get free access to funeral homes, funeral operators and funeral directors. Usually, they are very nice – I never got any rejections. Helpful bunch, what can I say?
