One day, Virginia went horse riding with the Duke.0:30
She tore her dress on a fence and went home to change her clothes.0:34
As she ran to her bedroom, she went past the ghost's room.0:39
She saw the ghost by the window.0:44
He looked very sad, and Virginia felt sorry for him.0:48
Don't worry, ghost, she said.0:53
My brothers are going back to school tomorrow.0:55
After that, if you are good, no one will annoy you.0:58
The ghost looked at Virginia in surprise.1:02
It is my job to walk in the hall, to make a noise with my chains, and to frighten people.1:09
Mrs. Umney told us that you killed your wife, said Virginia.1:15
Yes, it is true, said the ghost.1:20
But it was a family problem and it's no one else's business.1:22
It's wrong to kill people, said Virginia.1:26
You don't understand, said the ghost.1:29
She was a terrible wife, and I don't think it was very nice of her brothers to starve me to death, even though I did kill her.1:33
They starved you to death.1:40
I've got a sandwich in my bag.1:47
No, thank you, said the ghost.1:49
I never eat or sleep.1:50
But you are very kind.1:52
You are not like the rest of your rude, dishonest family.1:54
My family are not rude or dishonest, cried Virginia.1:58
You took all the paints from my box to make the stain in the library.2:04
You took all the reds, then all the purple, and when they were all gone, you used green.2:08
Well, what could I do?2:15
It is so difficult to get real blood these days.2:17
Then the ghost started to cry.2:21
Please don't be angry with me.2:23
I'm so unhappy, he said.2:25
I want to sleep, but I cannot, and I'm so tired.2:28
The only place where I can sleep is in the Garden of Death, said the ghost.2:36
You can help me get there.2:41
You are sweet and good.2:44
You can ask the angel of Death to let me sleep forever.2:47
I'm not afraid, said Virginia.2:51
The ghost took Virginia's hands.2:56
Suddenly the wall opened up into a big black hole.2:59
The hole closed around Virginia and the ghost, and the room was empty.3:04
