The Canterville Ghost and Other Stories, de Oscar Wilde., vol. Único. Editorial Signal, tapa blanda, edición 1887 en inglés, 1887

Descripción

When the American family Mr. Otis, his wife, and their four children settle into Canterville Chase, they are forewarned by Lord Canterville that the ghost of his ancestor haunts the premises. Skeptical at first, their disbelief is challenged by nightly disturbances and unexplained bloodstains. The ghost finds it increasingly difficult to frighten his new occupants, who tackle his antics with practical solutions. Amidst these supernatural occurrences, Virginia, the Otises' daughter, befriends the ghost and uncovers the sorrowful story of his past.

This narrative, laced with Oscar Wilde's characteristic humor, is one of his most celebrated works. Included in this collection are other tales of mystery and comedy: “Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime,” “The Sphinx without a Secret,” “The Model Millionaire,” and “The Portrait of Mr. W. H.”
