For more than fifty years, the country has been affected by a horrifying epidemic of ghosts. A number of Psychic Investigations Agencies have sprung up to destroy the dangerous apparitions. Lucy Carlyle, a talented young agent, arrives in London hoping for a notable career. Instead she finds herself joining the smallest, most ramshackle agency in the city, run by the charismatic Anthony Lockwood. When one of their cases goes horribly wrong, Lockwood & Co. have a last chance of redemption. Unfortunately, this involves spending the night in the most haunted house in England, and trying to escape alive. Set in a city stalked by spectres, The Screaming Staircase is the first in a chilling new series full of suspense, humour and truly terrifying ghosts. Your nights will never be the same again… [ Woofs & Wellies](https://www.garstangcommunityacademy.com/news/2016-01-05-woofs-wellies) [Chemistry at Work ](https://www.garstangcommunityacademy.com/news/2016-01-07-chemistry-at-work) ### Garstang Community Academy Garstang Road Bowgreave Garstang PR3 1YE 01995 603226 ### Useful Links - [Student Email (Gmail)](https://www.gmail.com) - [Google Classroom](https://classroom.google.com/) - [Facilities Hire](https://northwestschoolhire.co.uk/) - [Privacy Statement](https://www.garstangcommunityacademy.com/old-website-pages/privacy-statements) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61582638844533&locale=en_GB) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/garstangcommunityacademy2024/?hl=en) ### Translation © Copyright 2016–2026 Garstang Community Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.garstangcommunityacademy.com/img/logo/dark.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
