I definitely agree with the other readers, this book is great for those cold nights ;-) I thought the dreams that the twins and their cousin Robin had from wearing the necklace were pretty creepy. I also liked the blend of humour and horror from the writers. Like when Jess is trying to tell the Unicorns that she's gotten a part in a movie and Lila's too busy screeching about Jess and Ellen using her hairspray. Also, that annoying brat that was the 'star' of the film, she was so funny. Especially when Jess threw that cake at her, and everyone else joined in. I also thought it was quite sad too, especially when the ghost and her sister got together after all that time. A good read for any SV fan, you won't be disappointed.

When Jessica and Elizabeth get jobs as extras in a film, Jessica's thrilled. Then she finds a beautiful necklace on the beach, near the house where the movie's being filmed. The movie's about the death of a young girl, the same age as the twins... Jessica's having nightmares about falling from a balcony unto rocks, which is exactly the way Lillian, the girl, died. Now Elizabeth, Jessica and their cousin Robin have to find the real murderer; to clear an old woman's name and to let Lillian's spirit rest in peace. This is my absolute favourite of all the Sweet Valley twins, I have read it countless times and I'm still not bored. A great book to curl up with on a stormy night!

This book Is one of my favorie SVT chilers. It is about Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield who get parts in a movie about the mysterious death of Lillian Keller. Jessica picks up a ruby necklace from the beach nearby the mansion where Lillian fell to her death. She has awful nightmares about Lillian and her last few moments of life. She gets frieked out by the necklace, so she gives it to Elizabeth. She, also get these nightmares. Then the twins cousin, Robin waeres the necklace when sleeping and ALSO gets these horrors. The girls piece togeter 2 and 2 and visit the cousin of Lillian Keller who supposidly pushed Lilian over the cliff because she was mad at her for getting her dead mothers necklace. She tells them the true story and they set up the real killer to tape. To truely relive the facts I told you, read the book, I left out a little for your sake. :)
You should also read "The Carnival Ghost", also by Pascal. I hope you like them as much as I did.

The curse of the ruby neklace written by Francine Pascals is a great book to read. The book is about two teenagers girls who have to solve a mystery of a murder that happen years ago in an abandon mansion.The whole story stars out when elizabeth and her twin sister jessica wakefield get parts as extras in amovie their going to film.The movie is about this two girls Lillian and hilda who were both causins.The part of the movie their trying to film is when lillian is having her birthday party and she gets killed by hilda her own cousin at least that what everybody believes.The plot of the story is when elizabeth and jessica find out who really did killed lillian and clears out hildas name.The roles of the charecters in this story makes the readers think they are for real which makes you get into the book even more. I like the book because it's pretty well explenatory. The author does a great job at making you understand whats going on with the lives of the charecters.One thing that I did not like about the book is the way it ended.I was hoping the ending was going to be a little bit more exiting and scary but it ended up being normal like any other book I read.Other then that I thought the book was very interesting.This book really got my attention because I love reading mystery and scary stories.I like the way the author puts words in your head that creates a picture of whats going on with the life of the characters and the story itself.The curse of the ruby neklace is a fabulous book to read I would recomended to everybody.

I read this book when I was in 6th grade and I kept reading and re-reading it. It has been one of my favorite books and now I'm CRAVING to read it again even though I'm in 10th grade. I really wish some of the libraries I go to hadn't gotten rid of all the old SV series:-( Those held my memories of when I was a kid practically since it was like growing up with the Wakefield twins.

I loved this book! I always thought Harry was very creepy from the begining. I would never want to have the dreams that Elizabeth and Jessica had. I would have liked to be in a movie like they did. It was a very chilling book and I would reccomend it.

This was a fantastic book, one of my fave Sweet Valley books. When I first read it, I coldn't put it down. It kept me in suspense the whole time. I loved the plot of the book and the mystery. Francine Pascal is very clever. Now, it's been a few years since I've read it and I still remember it vividly. This is a wonderful book for anyone who's interested. Francine, keep up the good work and I'll keep reading!

This is a fantastic thriller,chiller and mystery.When the beautiful and bright Sweet Valley twins score parts(as extras)in a true-life movie,the ghost of the murdered child whom is the subject of the movie desperately communicates with them to reveal her killer.He is frighteningly close!!
