Said on its own when you are introduced to someone, encantado means pleased to meet you — a clipped form of encantado de conocerte. It agrees with the speaker, so a woman says encantada, and getting that wrong is audible immediately.
Both listed senses come from encantar, to cast a spell. A castle keeps the literal one and is haunted; a person under the everyday weakened one is simply delighted. That same weakening gives me encanta, which is how Spanish says I love it about anything short of a person.
contento glad, pleased
Ordinary satisfaction. Encantado is a rung above it and rather warmer.
feliz happy
About a life or a state, not about a new job. Estoy encantado con el trabajo, soy feliz.
fantasma ghost
What makes a castle encantado. The spell sense of the verb survives almost only here.
encantador charming
The person doing the enchanting rather than the one enchanted.
