How King Charles "Terrified" a New Butler With Ghost Stories and a Hidden Mannequin

King Charles wears a light suit, and places his hand inside the jacket while leaning on a wall and looking mischievous.

King Charles has been known to play pranks on people in his life. For instance, the monarch used a pair of garden shears to play a joke on a rock star, and he once tricked the press by wearing a hilarious disguise.
