The Great Ghost Rescue

The ghosts of Britain need a sanctuary. Castles with central heating bogs drained for motorways dismal forests cleared for car parks-there are few places left for a respectable ghost to haunt. Humphrey the Horrible (actually his name is simply Humphrey-he added the Horrible to help himself become horrible) is a small mostly unsuccessful ghost in a family of ghastly ghouls. His mother worries. But Humphrey has enough pluck to befriend a smart politically aware schoolboy Rick Henderson who is willing to take the ghosts cause right to the top to number 10 Downing Street-home of the Prime Minister.
