Review of Honeysuckle Cottage
by P.G. Wodehouse
Throughout the centuries countless stories of haunting horror 1) have been written exciting readers’ imaginations around the world. Though humour 2) is not 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 3) is inhabited by a ghost. The problem is that somehow his writing 4) is affected by the spirit of the place, causing him to write romantic stories instead of detective ones. Matters 5) are complicated even more when a real girl 6) is hit by a car outside the cottage and 7) is forced to seek James’ help.
Honeysuckle Cottage 8) was written in 1925, yet it 9) is still considered one of the funniest ghost stories of all time. In 2002, it 10) was adapted into a radio play for BBC Radio, introducing it to a whole new, younger audience. The story can 11) be found in the Wodehouse collection called Meet Mr. Mulliner. Ghost enthusiasts 12) will certainly be thrilled by the interesting twist at the end of the story.
