Books with title The Secret of Terror Castle

A Deadly Treasure Hunt Puts Nicki and Her Friends in Grave Danger.Without warning, the light ball darted into the leaves of a nearby oak tree. Even the air seemed to hold its breath until the top of the oak tree exploded in a shower of green leaves.Nicki and her friends are thrilled when they receive an invitation to spend a few days at a 500-year-old Irish castle. Shrouded in mystery and fairy legend, the castle is everything they expect, and more! The girls must battle the sea, superstition, and their own fears as they undertake a dangerous search for the legendary treasure of Cravenhill Castle.

This is an adventure all youngsters have dreamt about, in times when life was simpler and we all seemed to have lots of time for exploring and generally having fun. No technology, mobile phones etc. No swearing as such. Its basically about four children, one brother, two sisters and a new friend trying to enjoy a holiday in a remote but lovely place by the sea. As you can imagine not all goes to plan and they end up in a few sticky situations. But all's well that ends well, as they say. If you have read Enid Blyton especially " The Famous Five" books, then hopefully you will enjoy this as it is roughly based on the same style and format. If I ever publish this book in paper then I would love to add many drawings around the story. Good reading, thank you.

This is another of the Mary Pollock (alias Enid Blyton) books which would be more enjoyable to those younger Blyton fans who dote on the Secret Seven series where the endings involve Daddy and the Police. When I was in my Secret Seven phase I enjoyed The Secret of Cliff Castle because of its spookiness and the characters were ones with whom I could identify easily. The plot is strictly 'Formula' and any Blytoneer will be able to visualize certain aspects of the story before reaching Page #1. Castles are a staple of EB stories—there's Faynights Castle and the castle on Kirrin Island and the castle up the hill from Spring Cottage and Moon Castle and the Castle of Santa Claus and The Castle of the Red Goblin and The Giant's Castle and plenty of others dotted throughout the pages of Enid Blyton books.—Terry Gustafson [Suggest a different description.]
