The Canterville Ghost

By Oscar Wilde

Release : 1944-01-01

Genre : Horror, Monsters & Ghosts, Books, Young Adult, Fiction for Young Adults

Kind : ebook

4.5 (0 ratings)
A terrifying ghost is haunting the ancient mansion of Canterville Chase, complete with creaking floorboards, clanking chains and gruesome disguises - but the new occupants seem strangely undisturbed by his presence. Deftly contrasting the conventional gothic ghost story with the pragmatism of the modern world, Wilde creates a gently comic fable of the conflict between old and new. Rupert Degas' hilarious reading brings the absurdity and theatricality of the story to life.
