There’s a pronunciation guide at the front for the Welsh names, very helpful.
47. The Haunting at Cliff House – Karleen Bradford
A Canadian 13 year old, Alison, and her father travel to Wales to stay in a house he inherited for the summer. He’ll write his novel, she’ll wander around in the cold ocean and in the one room that wasn’t cleaned before they got there, which feels extra cold both physically and emotionally.
Alison does find a cave with a cat in it that almost fills up with the tide before she can get out – and she finds the diary of Bronwen, the 13 year old who previously occupied that one room. Bronwen also lives with her father, knows about the cave, and is not very pleased when her father starts dating again, but in 1810.
Alison’s father finds the local librarian who is from the little town by their isolated inherited cliff house and…also starts dating again…so of course their parallel lives intertwine and Alison must try to undo the past ills and make the ghost better again before she goes back to Canada. It’s a really short book, so she doesn’t have much time.

1950s chair exploration is enough for Pammy, she doesn’t need caves.

Speaking of haunted houses, Of Course It’s Haunted features one and the guinea pigs who are nonplussed, worried, or running away from it – Hen Wen, Salem, Thorfy, & Snuffy.
