Synopsis

Finding a genuine haunted house for a movie set sounds like fun -- and a great way to generate publicity for the Three Investigators' new detective agency. But when the boys arrive for an overnight visit at Terror Castle -- home of a deceased horror-movie actor -- they soon find out how the place got its name!

The telephone rang unexpectedly in the secret headquarters of The Three Investigators.  Jupiter Jones hesitated, glancing at his partners.  The phone rang again and Jupiter cautiously picked it up.

"Huh-hello?"

On the other end a faraway voice gasped.

"Stay...away..."

The ghostly voice died out and said no more.  But The Three Investigators knew what it meant.

Stay away from Terror Castle!
