context_page_description: The Haunted Manor is an opera in four acts composed by Polish composer Stanisław Moniuszko in 1861–1864. The libretto was written by Jan Chęciński. Despite being a romance and a comedy, it has strong Polish patriotic undertones, which made it both popular with the Polish public and unpopular – to the point of being banned – by the Russian authorities which controlled most of Poland during that era.
  It is considered Moniuszko's best opera, and also the greatest among all 19th-century Polish opera scores. However, it is mostly unknown outside Poland.
