Throughout the centuries, countless stories of haunting horror have been written, exciting readers’ imaginations around the world. Though humour is not typically expected of ghost stories, author P.G. Wodehouse pleasantly surprises his readers. Honeysuckle Cottage tells the story of James Rodman, a young writer of detective stories who finds himself living in a house that is inhabited by a ghost. The problem is that somehow his writing is affected by the spirit of the place, causing him to write romantic stories instead of detective ones. Matters are complicated even more when a real girl is hit by a car outside the cottage and is forced to seek James’ help. Honeysuckle Cottage was written in 1925, yet it is still considered one of the funniest ghost stories of all time. In 2002, it was adapted into a radio play for BBC Radio, introducing it to a whole new, younger audience. The story can be found in the Wodehouse collection called Meet Mr. Mulliner. Ghost enthusiasts will certainly be thrilled by the interesting twist at the end of the story.
