El fantasma de Canterville

The Canterville Ghost feels both funny and eerie, which is quite unique. I'm curious whether Wilde intended to satirize Victorian society or just loved mixing genres.

The ghost's antics and sense of morality made me root for him, rather than feel scared. Was this Wilde's way of subverting typical ghost stories?

The story subtly critiques Victorian social norms and hypocrisy. I wonder if Wilde used the ghost as a metaphor for societal flaws.
