| This classic volume features hilarious tales of the supernatural from authors including Oscar Wilde, Washington Irving, and others. While traditional ghost stories inspire spine-tingling fear, this collection features nineteen tales that will have readers howling with laughter. Here are stories of ghosts who play jokes, hauntings-gone-wrong, and paranormal hoaxes of the highest order. First published in 1921 and introduced by Dorothy Scarborough, Humorous Ghost Stories features Oscar Wilde’s satirical take on the wraith, “The Canterville Ghost”; Brander Matthews’s story of spectral courtship, “The Rival Ghosts”; Washington Irving’s classic tale of a frightful wedding feast, “The Spectral Bridegroom.” |
