Castle full of eccentric spirits from "summary" of Dial a Ghost by Eva Ibbotson

Nestled in the heart of rural England, surrounded by lush greenery and rolling hills, stood the grand and imposing Helton Hall. But this was no ordinary castle - it was a residence for ghosts. Not just any ghosts, mind you, but a collection of the most peculiar and eccentric spirits one could ever imagine. These were not your typical haunting specters, clad in white sheets and moaning mournfully in the dead of night. No, these ghosts had character, personality, and a mischievous sense of humor that set them apart from the rest. The ghosts of Helton Hall were a lively bunch, always finding new ways to entertain themselves and each other. From the mischievous twins, Eustace and Persephone, who loved nothing more than playing pranks on unsuspecting visitors, to the lovelorn Lady Harriet, who wandered the halls pining for her lost love, each spirit had a tale to tell and a personality all their own. Despite their otherworldly nature, the ghosts of Helton Hall were a close-knit community, bound together by their shared history and their love for their home. They took pride in their castle, keeping it immaculately maintained and welcoming new arrivals with open arms. And when trouble came knocking at their door, they banded together to protect their beloved residence and the family that lived within its walls. Though they may have been long departed from the land of the living, the ghosts of Helton Hall were anything but lonely. They found companionship, camaraderie, and a sense of purpose in their afterlife, far removed from the solitude and sadness that often plagued other spirits. And as they went about their ghostly duties, they brought joy and laughter to all who crossed their path, proving that even in death, life could be full of surprises and adventure.
