Creepe Hall - Alan Durant

An adventure about an ordinary boy visiting some very extraordinary gothic relations! Sent by his parents to stay with distant relatives, Oliver has no idea of the weird and wonderful world he's about to enter. For Creepe Hall is not like anywhere Oliver's ever been and the Creepes are not like any family he's ever met. There's red-eyed, bat-like Uncle Vladimir; absent-minded inventor Uncle Franklin; the giant manservant Mummy; the extraordinary Werebadger and lastly, the twins Constance and Candida, who have an uncanny habit of walking through walls! At first Oliver is not sure about his new relatives - after all they don't even have a TV and Oliver loves TV. But gradually he takes to them and becomes fully involved in Creepe Hall life - even introducing some domestic improvements, including a solar-powered vacuum cleaner!;Alan Durant has written "Jake's Magic", "Little Dracula's Fiendishly Funny Joke Book" "The Fantastic Football Fun Book", "Mouse Party", "Snake Supper", "Big Fish, Little Fish", "Prince Shufflebottom", "Blood", "Nightmare Rave", "Hamlet, Bananas and All That Jazz", "A Short Stay in Purgatory" and "The Good Book".
