From the back cover:

American millionaire Hiram C. Hopgood will stop at nothing to make his daughter, Helen, happy—even if it means buying her an ancient Scottish castle and shipping it back to Texas. Assembling the castle isn't a problem for the oil tycoon...it's the ghosts that worry him. Krok, a Viking warrier; Miss Spinks, an unearthly governess; Stanislaus, an aging, toothless vampire; five-year-old Flossie; and Cyril, the unusually long hellhound have been haunting the castle for years. Hopgood has made up his mind: the ghouls have got to go. But these spirits don't spook so easily. Instead, they make their way to America, where they meet up with a mgical severed hand and three fiendish, cross-dressing kidnappers for a Texas-size adventure with a ghostly Scottish flair.

I definitely enjoyed this one, thanks for sharing Elsi! I think if you like this one, you should also try out The Boggart by Susan Cooper, more Scottish fun!

Time to clean out some books and share with the world! Sending this off to Tribefan for the Akron Reading Festival!
