Synopsis

Now in paperback, a first-rate horror story by the bestselling author of the Last Apprentice series

Fifteen-year-old Billy guards a castle prison. But it isn't just criminals he's guarding--the ghosts of executed prisoners haunt the place. When Billy is given the task of feeding the prisoner in The Witch Well, a ghost named Long-Neck Netty decides to play a trick on Billy during the feeding...a trick that could cost Billy his life. Lavishly filled with black-and-white illustrations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

‘This is the entrance to the Witch Well and behind that door you’d face your worst nightmare. Don’t ever go through there.'

Night falls, the portcullis rises in the moonlight, and young Billy starts his first night as a prison guard. But this is no ordinary prison. There are haunted cells that can’t be used, whispers and cries in the night . . . and the dreaded Witch Well. Billy is warned to stay away from the prisoner down in the Witch Well. But who could it be? What prisoner could be so frightening? Billy is about to find out . . .

An unforgettable ghost story from the creator of the Wardstone Chronicles (Spook's Apprentice) series.
