Ghosthunters and The Totally Moldy Baroness by Cornelia Funke

Yep.  Number 3 in the Ghosthunters series!  I told you I couldn't help myself with these, right?  In Ghosthunters and the Totally Mold Baroness, (Lexile: 810; Interest Level: Grades 2-5), Cornelia Funke adds a little romance to Hugo's life as the trio (Tom, Hetty Hyssop and Hugo) go to Gloomsburg Castle to investigate an awful smell surrounding the wife of the caretaker when the Totally Moldy Baroness possesses her body, giving her a horrible case of the hiccups.  Faced with a old, crumbling castle infected with TIBIGs (Tiny Biting Ghosts), the friends have to figure out how to confront the Totally Moldy Baroness, who believes she owns the castle, without hurting the caretaker's wife.  And the romance?  Well, Hugo finds the Baroness to be very attractive, moldy smell and all!  Continue this series for more information on ghost hunting, more fun adventures, and to see Tom in a dress?!  And, I just discovered I must look for the 4th one: Ghosthunters and the Muddy Monster of Doom!
