Note: Non-supernatural, with a faked haunting. First published in London Society, December 1883, as "Selecting a Ghost: The Ghosts of Goresthorpe Grange." Not the same as Doyle's early story "The Haunted Grange of Goresthorpe."
Synopsis: Argentine D'Odd is a successful man with a lovely wife, thriving bank account and a dignified (if fabricated) knightly heritage. But Goresthorpe Grange, his newly-purchased 'ancestral' home, lacks the one thing he wants most in the world: a ghost. Fortunately, there are people that can help with that. Unfortunately, the one who arrives is a con man.
