Upon reaching adulthood, he qualified as a lawyer, but, upon his father's death, his received a large inheritance, and left the law to become a writer. He first found fame as an investigative reporter on L'Echo de Paris, and travelled the world in a variety of disguises, reporting on a wide range of topics from volcanic eruptions to palace revolutions. In 1907, he changed career once again, and started work as a novelist, finding critical and commercial success with works such as The Mystery of the Yellow Room (1907) and The Phantom of the Opera (1911). Leroux continued to be a prolific writer until his death in 1927 - the result of complications following an operation.

    Review from BadelyngeNo tour through the literary landscape of The Ghost Story would be complete without Oscar Wilde's clever little tale The Canterville Ghost. He turns the whole concept on its head with the ancient titular ghost, who has spent several centuries not paying for the sins of his life by blithely terrifying the old house's residents and visitors to death and insanity, being driven to his own wits end by the American family who bring their own blithe modernity to bear in dealing with him. The results are very funny; Wilde is justly famous for his wit and his command of satire. It's not just a comedy though. There are more serious themes at work, not least the chance for redemption. Wilde also can find time between the fun to show he can use lyricism to evoke pathos with equal mastery. This is one you can read more than once, because like good poetry it doesn't always give everything up with the first reading.

    This was a quaint, short, and neat little tale by Wilde. I thought that it got to the purpose, the epitome, of the story in an efficient way. However, it did not have the same majesty of language that Wilde possessed with his other works and I felt that to be a lacking quality about it. Nevertheless, the ending was fulfilling and the developments that occurred during it were palatable. For a quick, swift, and short read (for those interested in Wilde), I recommend this one.3.5 stars.

    An American family bought the house and the ghost who had lived there for three hndred years. At first, that ghost tried to frighten then somehow again and again, but, everytime he did, he was surprised or frightened by them unexpectedly and ran back to his room miserablly. Three boys of that family really enjoyed playing tricks on him in this way, but their sister Virginia was different and finally she even helped the ghost to get "something". It was...This American family got the ghost by money and they even frightened or surprised the ghost by modern tools from America. In this way, they believed in their modern culture and money, so they didn't get frightened by the "old" ghost at all. I think it was kind of interesting that such a people got really frightened when Virginia disappeared, in other words, when they were about to lose their love". This story actually shows the importance of love though we can't expect that at all at first.

    American family buys the old house that has had a ghost for three years. People warned Mr Hiram B.Otis , but he was happy to get the house and the ghost. On the other, the Canterville ghost who had been in the old house for three years tries to frighten the morden American family. But the new residents are tough enemies!This book is filled of humor and love. In the first side, the exchanges between the ghost and American family, especially sons is very fun. In the latter half, a beautiful daughter, Virgina's activity is wonderful. Indeed this book tells me "Life and Death and that Love is stronger than both." I like this story very much.
