Yes, death. Death must be so beautiful. Toie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head andisten to silence. To have no yesterday and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgetife, to be at peace. You can help me. You can open for me the portals of death's house, forove is always with you andove is stronger than death is.'The Canterville Ghost is aight-hearted novella by Oscar Wilde where he parodies gothic horror as well as cultural differences between the United States and the United Kingdom. The story of an American family that moves into a castle haunted by the 300-year-old ghost of a nobleman, who had killed his wife and was himself starved to death by his wife's brothers, this novella isaced with macabre and comedy.

The Canterville Ghost mocks not just spirits and ghosts, but also the American culture, poking fun at their bluntness andack of social grace. One of the few stories in worlditerature to indulge in ghosts, this riveting read is bound toeave you in splits!
