We moved into our new house because Mum liked the vibes. But those vibes turned scary when ghostly writing started appearing on the walls of Bethan's room. Mum tried a few new-age tricks, but couldn't stop the creepy nightmares. We even called in paranormal investigators, but they were totally stumped. That's when I decided to take matters into my own hands.

A spooky paranormal mystery for Allie's Ghost Hunters to solve, involving mysterious handwriting that keeps appearing on the bedroom walls, and a young girl who died tragically many years before.

What the critics say

"Cleverly creepy, well-written and well-researched, this is a delightful spine-tingler and a great read." (The Sunday Tasmanian)
"A first-class ghost story." (Reading Time)
"Allie and her brother, Bethan, have mixed emotions when their family moves into a very odd old house because their mother likes the vibes. When the walls of Bethan's room are painted, the strings old-fashioned handwriting that were there before return. Soon Allie begins to make sense of the words. Narrator Melissa Chambers is warm and charming as she goes back in time, from 1890 to 1907, to retell the sad story of Eglantine. Allie, a modern ghost hunter, learns about kids of an earlier generation and their difficult lives. She also helps Eglantine find rest by finishing her tragic story. This dramatic history lesson, told with great Aussie accents, will intrigue modern young listeners." (AudioFile Magazine)
