About this listen

Read aloud by actor John Sessions, The Great Ghost Rescue is a wonderfully spooky young fiction title from the award-winning author of Journey to the River Sea, Eva Ibbotson.

Nobody knew what had gone wrong with Humphrey. Perhaps it was his ectoplasm . . .

Humphrey the Horrible sounds scary, but he's actually a very friendly skeleton, with twinkling eye sockets and jangling finger bones. Humphrey dreams of being ghastly, like his brother – a screaming skull – or terrifying, like his bloodsucking vampire-bat cousins. But when Humphrey discovers an evil plot to exorcise his family, he finally realizes you don't have to be spine-chillingly fearsome to be a hero.

What can I say, it's so delightfully ghoulish and sweet, I never get tired of it.

Cursed be thy name.
