why is mr otis so eager to purchase the haunted house.

Dear Student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query:

When Lord Canterville informed Mr. Otis about the haunted house, he remarked that he will take the furniture and the ghost at a valuation. He has come from a modern country, where they have everything that money can buy; and with all their spry young fellows painting the Old World red, and carrying off Europe's best actors and prima-donnas, he reckons that if there were such a thing as a ghost in Europe, they would have it at home in a very short time in one of their public museums, or on the road as a show. The house would give him respectability and no ghost would deny him that.
