"Ghosts and Journeys" by Robert Westall intertwines the themes of the supernatural with the exploration of lost histories. The story follows a group of children who discover a long-abandoned house filled with mysteries and echoes of the past. As they delve into the house’s history, they encounter ghostly apparitions that reveal tragic events and untold stories of those who once lived there. Their adventures lead to a deeper understanding of friendship, loyalty, and the impact of the past on the present, creating a hauntingly beautiful narrative that blends the mundane with the magical.
