The Pflasterhüpfer Kids 2 bring Oscar Wilde’s fairy tale to the big stage as a children’s comedy.
Things are highly amusing and turbulent at Canterville Castle. The long-established landlord, the Canterville ghost, tries to defend himself against the disrespectful intrusion of an intrepid American family into his time-honored home. But no matter how hard the ghost tries, he just can’t quite manage to scare the unwelcome housemates. The Otis family from America is truly unshakeable, especially the twins. How are they supposed to be spooked? Even an experienced castle ghost can get desperate. But perhaps the intrepidity of the new owners is also a blessing? Daughter Virginia suddenly turns out to be a carefree angel with an interest in history. Will she be able to help the ghost break free from its ancient spell?
