What's Troubling the Old Manor House

Beschreibung

News of seeing a For Sale sign posted on the Arguyle property sends ripples of excitement through the Stormsville Hollow community. Those calls are certainly welcome! For years, the home has stood empty and run-down. Now, even though boarded-up, complaints of strange things happening there are on the rise. Some say the deceased family's spirits still reside at the old manor, and will only leave when a new family moves into it. A meeting is called to discourage filing further reports of supernatural sightings and other weird things happening there for fear of scaring away potential buyers. Arguyle Manor is eventually purchased by Thomas Jacob, a minister and his members as a sanctuary hall for their meetings, and also the home of the Jacob family. Once the place is renovated and returned to its former beauty, the Jacobs move into it. Shortly afterward, the family is confronted with a real mystery! Is the manor being haunted by the deceased Arguyle family as some neighbors suspect?

Autor

Author Barbara Pierce began writing books for young people after retiring from teaching elementary school. She has published many, most of which are fiction. They cover a wide genre of subjects and reading levels. The author says writing books for children and the young at heart was a dream of hers during childhood. When asked what is her source of inspiration for writing her poems, she responds, "life in general". Her poems are reminiscent of a variety of life's experiences and others are purely imaginative fabrications woven into rhyming verse.
