This charming Tale is from one of the finest and funniest writers of all time, Oscar Wilde. "The Canterville Ghost" was Wilde's first published story, and has been adapted many times since for stage and screen. Wilde would perhaps become best known for his acerbic wit and poking fun at genteel society, but he would return to supernatural themes in his more frightening work "The Picture of Dorian Gray". As for the Canterville Ghost, he's had a long career of terrifying visitors to his stately home, but has he met his match in the form of the latest occupants?
