Groosham Grange

By Anthony Horowitz

A hilarious, spooky tale from the number one bestselling author Anthony Horowitz.

Sent to Groosham Grange as a last resort by his parents, David Eliot quickly discovers that his new school is a very weird place indeed. New pupils are made to sign their names in blood; the French teacher disappears every full moon; the assistant headmaster keeps something very chilling in his room... What's the meaning of the black rings everyone wears? Where do the other pupils vanish to at night? Most important of all, how on earth can David get away – alive?

Groosham Grange is a spine-chilling story because all the children disappear... Also the teachers are not what they say they are they all have false names meanwhile the children have too wear rings and they have too sign there names in blood which is creepy.It is a brilliant story too read even for children.
