Summary: If you want an OO language, use an OO language. Haskell isn't one.
There are some outdated examples of OO extensions for Haskell that I don't think are maintained any more, notably "OOHaskell". They're not maintained due to lack of interest. If you want such a thing, you'll have to modernize it yourself.
I wouldn't take that advice too literally-- When I was first learning Haskell I was interested in O'Haskell (or whatever it was called), but now that I've used Haskell for longer, I get along quite happily with its type-system and way of thinking about things, and rarely want OO. -Isaac
