Synopsis:

Spooky Trouble!

Lord and Lady Spiffing want lots of ghosts - to thrill the tourists. Oli wants just one ghost - to win a bet with his sister. Skipjack doesn’t want any ghosts - but thanks to the Spookoscope, he’s got one.

If the ghosts aren’t sorted by sundown, there’ll be trouble!

'A marvellously funny book about ghostly goings on at Spiffing castle, owned by the quirky and ever so eccentric Lord and Lady Spiffy. Legends of ghosts inside the castle are the only thing that keep the tourists coming - and stop the house from crumbling to the ground. But are the spooks real? An array of weird and wacky characters - complete with weird and wacky gadgets - make this a great read that both girls and boys will absolutely love. I know I did!' Waterstone's Books Quarterly

'Ghosts have never been more entertaining, or more guaranteed to leave children nightmare free and laughing loudly.'  The Bookbag (5/5 Stars)
