"The Canterville Ghost" is a witty play on the genre of Gothic horror turned into comedy, Oscar Wilde's debut in prose.

The combination of satire and the supernatural subsequently inspired many authors and filmmakers, and the story itself is still beloved by readers today.

The Otis family moves from America to England and settles in Canterville Castle, where, according to rumors, a terrible ghost lives. But in advanced times, when every problem has already been invented and patented a solution, it is not the living who should fear the dead, but the dead - the living ...

The book also includes the stories "The Sphinx Without a Riddle", "The Portrait of Mr. W. H.", "The Model Millionaire" and "The Crime of Lord Arthur Savile".
