Oscar Wilde

The Canterville Ghost

What happens when a British ghost meets an American family? Hilarity—and horror—ensue.

The Canterville Ghost is Oscar Wilde at his wittiest and most whimsical. This classic short story blends supernatural suspense with biting social satire as the Otis family—practical Americans—move into a haunted English mansion, unimpressed by its resident ghost, Sir Simon.

Rich in humor, charm, and irony, Wilde's ghost story pokes fun at old-world traditions and new-world rationality in equal measure.
