As night falls on the ancestral home of Lord Codswallop, rumors fly that the historic (and haunted?) castle might be sold. What could possibly be worse? Only that the new owners could be… (gasp)…American! Laughter abounds as mayhem and murder unfold in this “spirited” evening of food and fun. You’ll have a jolly good time!
