A classic ghost story with a stunning twist from Zelah Green author, Vanessa Curtis.

`I look up at the dark, unblinking eyes of the house and I get the weirdest feeling . . . It's the feeling of being pulled into something and being unable to stop it happening . . .' Tabitha is used to changing schools and moving house. But when her family move into Weston Manor, something is different. It's as if the house has been waiting for her. There are lavender smells which come from nowhere and the old servants' bells ring in the night. She can hear crying in empty rooms. Tabitha's always been imaginative. Even her best friend Gemma knows that. But this time, could she actually be telling the truth?

Set in a sprawling Victorian manor, Vanessa Curtis's spine-tingling ghost story, The Haunting of Tabitha Grey is filled with intriguing plot twists and enough tension to keep 11+ readers on their toes. It's Turn of the Screw meets The Others for young teen readers.
