Nancy and George had stopped dead in their tracks. They could see no one. “Did that man’s voice come from inside or outside the castle?” George asked. “I honestly don’t know,” Nancy responded. “If we go carefully, do you mind investigating the inside?” “I’m game,” said George. “But why didn’t we bring flashlights?” The two girls entered an arched doorway which led to the cellar of the stone castle. Ahead of them was a long corridor with rooms opening off each side. Cobwebs festooned the place. Nancy suggested that George keep looking back and into the rooms on the left. She herself would gaze ahead and glance into the openings on the right. “This is really spooky,” said George. “It looks like an old-time dungeon.” The two sleuths walked as far as there was light to see, but the corridor grew increasingly dimmer as they penetrated into the interior. Most of the rooms had no windows; others had small barred openings high on the outer sides. Apparently all the rooms were empty with the exception of what once was probably the kitchen.
