You can find a summary of Virginia Woolf's "A Haunted
House" if you go to the link I've attached at the bottom of my answer. Most of Virginia
Woolf's can be difficult to understand because she uses stream-of-consciousness in her
works. Stream of consciousness is usually the random thoughts or thought processes of
the narrator. We don't usually think in any sort of order, and so that's what this
point of view represents. I think the themes Woolf is trying to showcase in her story
are undying love, and the relationships the living can have with the dead. The
narrator, a woman, is living in the home that was previously owned by the ghosts. They
share not only that connection, but also the love that they feel for their
spouses.
