describe how does ghost prepeared himself for third appearance.

The ghost resolved to make a third attempt on Friday, August 17th. He spent a considerable amount of time looking over his wardrobe, ultimately deciding in favour of a large slouched hat with a red feather, a winding-sheet frilled at the wrists and neck along with a rusty dagger for added effect. The weather also changed to become conducive to his plans of scaring the family. His plan of action was to make his way quietly to Washington Otis' room, gibber at him from the foot of the bed and stab himself three times in the throat to the sound of low music. Then he would proceed to the minister's room, place a clammy forehead on his wife's forehead while he hissed awful secrets of the charnel house into her trembling husband's ears. He had not formulated a plan for Virginia, she had never caused him any trouble so he decided to let her off lightly. As for the twins, he was determined to take his vengeance for their audacity. Firstly, he would sit upon their chests so as to produce a stifling sensation of nightmare. Then as their beds were quite close to each other, he would stand between them in the form of a green, icy-cold corpse until they became paralysed with fear. Finally, he would throw off the winding sheet and crawl around the room with white, bleached bones and one rolling eyeball in the character of Dumb Daniel or the Suicide's Skeleton.
