Welcome to Edinburgh Castle, an ancient fortification rumored to have more than a few ghostly residents. This entry in the Eerie Expeditions around the World (6 titles) series whisks readers to the titular Scottish fortress, dramatically describing it as the “most haunted place in Scotland.” After a brief history lesson about the castle, a roster of creepy characters gets its time to shine. There are ominous tales of a headless drummer boy, the restless spirit of a woman burned for witchcraft, and a ghost that can be smelled as well as seen, among other stories. Splashy photos and dramatic fonts create a wonderfully eerie atmosphere, and helpful back matter includes a detailed time line, a glossary, and further reading. The eerie subject matter is sure to enthrall any young reader who dares to dig in.
