Ghost Hunters International:
Spreading American Cultural Imperialism to the Dead
Spreading American Cultural Imperialism to the Dead
AN EXCERPT: "Are you in here, Mr. Marconi?" asked seventeen times in a row [...]
No response. It seemed a lost cause.
And then a thought occurred. Maybe these ghost "hunters" are good at their job. Maybe they're experts at finding and communicating with ghosts. Their only sin is stereotypical American ethnocentricity when traveling abroad. Think about it. Why would a ghost girl from 1500s Tuscany UNDERSTAND ENGLISH?!
MONEY QUOTE: "Let this be a lesson, non-American ghosts. If you really want to address your unfinished business, sign up for an ESL class."
