"Phantasmagoria" is a narrative discussion written in seven canticles between a ghost (a Phantom) and a man named Tibbets. Lewis Carroll shows the ghost that doesn’t differ from humans. Ghosts may chatter and jangle their chains, but they, just like people, simply have a job to do and that job is to haunt. Just as in our society, in ghost society there is a hierarchy and ghosts. The main person is the King who must be addressed as “Your Royal Whiteness.” There is even a Knight Mayor, whose job i
...t is to give you “nightmares”. Ghosts have certain rules to obey, and if they don’t they will be punished by the King. "Phantasmagoria" is the book about ghosts, their lives and work. "Phantasmagoria" is ironic, mystical and one of the most exciting works written by Lewis Carroll.
