Book 3 in the ghastly fantastic GHOSTHUNTERS series of paperback originals by bestselling author Cornelia Funke--get scared silly!

Strange and stinky things are happening at Gloomsburg Castle. To begin with, the creepy place is crawling with TIBIGs (Tiny Biting Ghosts, per the Indispensable Alphabetical Index). And now it appears that the murderous spirit of a 400-year-old, Totally Moldy Baroness has possessed the palace's owner, infecting her with a killer case of hic-hic-hiccups!
To put an end to the foul play and dispel this rank, decaying royal for good, count on ghost-busting boy wonder Tom, Averagely Spooky Ghost Hugo, and the ever-resourceful Hetty. Go ghosthunters!

This review is from: Ghosthunters And The Totally Moldy Baroness! (Paperback)

The third part of the series

And a new Ghosthunter book

The saga of the Baroness

Is worth a second look

It's off to Gloomsburg Castle

To meet some folk named Worm

Another tough assignment

For Hetty and her firm

To try to catch the Baroness

They turn off all the power

Because without her energy

She'll wither like a flower

The plan backfires terribly

And she still gets her juice

Astride her horse she draws a sword

And then all hell breaks loose

The Baroness had met her fate

By falling in the moat

The only chance they have to win

Lies hidden 'neath her coat

Action packed and funny too

This is the best so far

So look for more Ghosthunters

If you're into the bizarre

I like the Ghosthunter series. This book was too short though. I liked how they eliminated the ghost. You should get this book!
