The Ghost Hunter at Chillwood Castle
The Ghost Hunter's back, and this time she's got help. Her revolting sidekick, DeSniff, is doing all he can to find William so that Mrs. Croker can spray him with her foul Ghost-Immobilizing Vapour. And with a spooky gathering taking place at Chillwood Castle, Mrs Croker and DeSniff look like having a field day. Unless Roddy and Tessa can do something fast, William won't be the only ghost who ends up in a bottle!

Well to start with, I was glad it was longer and more adventurous than the previous one (that was a bit disappointing as I read it in a few minutes), this was was almost 200 pages so a lot more went on.. I started this on New Year's day 2025.
I thought the adventure was great anyway, the castle setting and meeting other ghosts (though I was crestfallen when there wasn't a side storyline about Tessa's friend following her to a cave and spraining her ankle - that was a key hilarious moment from the TV show).
I was just wondering why Roddy was bothered by William's boots dangling in the milk if he's a ghost? Also, Eric was apparently dead in the 1500s but his vocabulary seemed to be a bit more modern (or maybe because he'd been dead for a long time he learnt with the centuries).
