Answer to Question 1

One of a couple who now live in an old house, which is haunted by a pair of ghosts.

Answer to Question 2


  • Monsieur spends his entire inheritance as well as borrows eighteen thousand more francs at usurious interest rates to buy a new necklace. His wife and he live in oppressive poverty for ten years to pay off the debt. This situation is cruelly ironic because they must live in poverty for a decade because Mme. Loisel indulged in borrowed luxury for one night.
