Este era uno de mis cuentos favoritos cuando era niña, y volverlo a leer ahora me siguió pareciendo bien bonito y divertido.
Can't decide between 3.5 or 4 stars... Quick fun read, I really liked the story and the atmosphere (though I would've liked it to be darker).
*** At the end I really wanted Virginia to tell what happened!

I loved it!!
I've enjoyed all of Oscar Wilde's stories that I've read till date, and this one didn't disappoint. Though advertised as primarily a comedy/humourous story, this one is emotional too.
The way the Americans didn't believe in the ghost despite his laborious efforts, was very funny, and I was snorting every few minutes.
What I didn't completely get, was, that aren't ghosts supposed to be non-corporeal? He was tripping and getting wet, and in general falling prey to all of the kids' pranks, which, I have to admit, seems pretty out of character for a ghost.
The way Victoria is the only one who doesn't prank him, and then becomes his greatest confidant, was very emotional. We see that the ghost is really tired of being subjected to three centuries of playing pranks on people, and now the only thing he wishes for is the peace that comes with death.
Another one of Oscar Wilde's great stories, this has made me want to read all the ones I've heard of but never read till now for some reason.

A very short, quirky little tale about a ghost who has no reason to be other than to haunt Canterville Castle - which he cannot even do as the inhabitants are playing silly little pranks on him.

Este es un relato corto, entretenido y divertido. Como siempre, el talento de Wilde es evidente y me encanta su sentido del humor.

#32: Una historia de fantasmas
Por un momento me esperaba otra cosa pero después recordé el humor de Oscar Wilde y supe lo que debía esperar realmente.
