The Darkling Curse

(3) 4-6 Something Wickedly Weird series. When the mysterious Darklings claim to be the true owners of Candlestick Hall, Stanley Buggles must prove he's the rightful heir. Mould successfully manages to make the Darklings both creepy (the nocturnal family sings ditties about Stanley's death) and poignant (young Berkeley Darkling wants Stanley to play with him). Black-and-white illustrations, at once eerie and humorous, accompany this fourth series entry.
