Sobre IBD

This humorous novella tells the story of an American family who moves into a haunted English mansion, much to the frustration of its resident ghost, Sir Simon. Used to scaring residents for centuries, Sir Simon is baffled by the modern and pragmatic Otis family, who refuse to be frightened. Blending satire, humor, and gothic elements, the story explores themes of culture clash, redemption, and forgiveness in Wilde’s witty and charming style.
