<p><b>Despite multiple warnings, Horace B. Otis and his family move to Canterville Chase, a sprawling English manor with a dark history and a lingering guest.</b> From the brilliant mind of Oscar Wilde, <i>The Canterville Ghost</i> is an irreverent mix of horror and humor.</p>
<p>Canterville Chase is an English estate known for its troubled past. It was previously owned by a nobleman, Sir Simon de Canterville, who suddenly disappeared after the murder of his wife. When the Otis family buys the property they begin to notice a supernatural presence. Yet, unlike the previous residents, they're more annoyed than afraid. Sir Simon's scare tactics fall flat, leading to a ghostly identity crisis.</p>
<p><i>The Canterville Ghost</i> is an entertaining story that subverts the expectations of the horror genre. It's a family friendly tale with Gothic elements balanced by slapstick humor. Since its publication in 1887, <i>The Canterville Ghost</i> has been adapted across multiple mediums including radio, film and television.</p>
<p>With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of <i>The Canterville Ghost</i> is both modern and readable.</p>
