"Ghosts" is a play written by Henrik Ibsen in 1881. It explores controversial
topics such as religion, venereal disease, incest, and euthanasia, making it
highly controversial at the time. The play revolves around Mrs. Helen Alving,
a widow, who discovers that her son Oswald has inherited syphilis from his
father. She also learns that Oswald is in love with Regina Engstrand, who is
actually his half-sister. The play delves into the consequences of not
breaking societal moral codes. "Ghosts" received negative criticism initially
but is now considered an important and influential play. It has been performed
worldwide and adapted for film and television multiple times. The play's frank
treatment of taboo subjects shocked audiences and was met with strong
criticism. However, it has since gained recognition for its bold exploration
of societal norms and moral codes.
