Moving to a new home in never easy, especially when a ghost lives there,too! This book was a real page page turner for me all the way through as Melinda, her brother Kevin and their neighbor Dan not only have to deal with the hair-raising ghostly visits, but also solve the Civil War mystery behind them!

Do you like getting scared? Well, if you do then I suggest you read this book....alone....in big creeky house!!! The Haunting of Holroyd Hill is always keeping you on the edge and is taking you threw a maze of surprises! Brenda Seabrooke Wrote this book very well! I loved how she took this story from her own life experiences. For example, the books setting was near where she lived in Falls Church, Virginia. She bought a big new house there over a old pre-Civil war road and she kept hearing noises and thats where this TRUE murder mystery starts. This book is ok for all ages, unless you have child who is easily scared! I hope this review makes you wanna read this wonderful book!

Do you like mysteries? This is a fast-paced, murder story. Brenda is from Falls Church, VA. She said she wrote it when they moved to a new house, and heard strange sounds. This is a very true story. I think it was a very interesting story. Because it keeps you interested in the book and not put it down, and go do something else.

I liked the Haunting of Holroyd Hill because it was a thrilling mystery book. I would recommend this book to middle school students, because I liked it and I think they will too.

I haven't read this book in 10 years, but I vividly remember the heeby-jeebies it gave me at night. The book was all the more real to me because it takes place in my neighborhood. Don't ever read this book alone, or in a poorly-lit area.
