The plot centers around a young woman named Mary, who inherits a haunted mansion on a remote island. When she and her companions arrive at the mansion, they encounter a series of mysterious and seemingly supernatural events. The tension escalates as they believe the house is haunted by the ghost of a former resident. Enter the play's hero, a resourceful and brave man named James, who takes it upon himself to investigate and “break” the ghost's hold on the mansion. James, with the help of a few comic sidekicks, confronts the supernatural forces in a series of comedic yet suspenseful episodes.Throughout the play, the characters face escalating challenges, but the farcical nature of the play ensures that no real danger arises. The ghost is eventually revealed to be a hoax, and the mystery is solved through a combination of cleverness and absurdity. The comedy is heavily reliant on mistaken identities, physical humor, and over-the-top antics, all of which are typical of a melodramatic farce. Ultimately, the play delivers a lighthearted resolution, with romantic elements and comedic triumphs over supernatural fears.
