When she gets there she meets two men who are also attending together and feels a strange sense of familiarity with them both. Then the atmosphere of the castle comes into play and people start acting strangely, shadows are cast by no one and music can be heard where there should be none.
The ghosts at Wyemont Castle are real and they are certainly not like Casper! There has been a curse placed on the castle and its inhabitants and the ghosts keep trying to make history repeat itself so that the curse won't be broken.
This is a wonderfully written novella with enough action going on to keep you intrigued as you turn the pages. It is written in a genteel style so completely appropriate for the times. This is not a bodice-ripper but is all proper and above board (unless you count a couple of kisses between Vero and Tristan before they announce their courtship/engagement). With this story, you could either read it on the build-up to Samhain/Halloween for the ghost story aspect or on the build-up to the Winter Solstice as this is when the story reaches its climax. Either way, I would recommend curling up with this book, a hot drink and relax.
I love Elizabeth Cole's writing style and have enjoyed more than one of her books. I can recommend her highly without hesitation.

Kim Pook (101 KP) rated Mr Harrigan's Phone (2022) in Movies
May 5, 2023
On his first day of high school he finds out that in order to fit in, he's going to need a phone. He asks his dad for one who says no, but he ends up getting an iPhone for Xmas and his scratch card from Mr Harrigan wins him $3000. With his winnings he buys Mr Harrigan a phone, which at first is declined, but Craig soon wins him around I to accepting it, and shows him how to use it, and personalise it.
One day when Craig goes to visit Mr Harrigan, he finds he has sadly passed away still holding his phone. Craig takes his phone and puts it into Mr Harrigans pocket during his funeral. After the funeral Craig receives a letter stating that he had been left $800,000 in trust funds and that's when strange things start happening.
Craig receives a reply to a text he sent Mr Harrigan after he died, he hears Mr Harrigans phone ringing from his grave and a bully dies after beating Craig up one day. Craig has a feeling that Mr Harrigans ghost is responsible for all these things and sets about trying to prove it.
Problem is, all this took an hour and 10 minutes to get to, and considering its only an hour and 40 minute film that didn't leave much of a movie left to explore.. 20 minutes before the end it started getting interesting but then it finished suddenly, leaving me bitterly disappointed. They could have done so much with the movie, but sadly didn't.
