Synopsis

When the Aldens first arrive in Elbow Bend, they meet Kate Frances, who tells them all sorts of ghost stories about the town! The scariest tale is about a ghost dog who howls at midnight and appears to warn people of danger! The Aldens think it is just a story until they hear dogs all over Elbow Bend howling at midnight. Does the ghost dog really exist or is someone playing a trick on them? The Boxcar Children are determined to find out.

About The Author

The Boxcar Children Series was created by Gertrude Chandler Warner, a teacher, when she realized that there were few, if any, books for children that were both easy and fun to read. She drew on her own experiences in writing the mysteries. As a child, she had spent hours watching trains near her home, and often dreamed about what it would be like to live in a caboose or freight car. In each story, she chose a special setting and introduced unpredictable, unusual or eccentric characters, to help highlight the Aldens’ independence and resourcefulness. Miss Warner lived in Putnam, Massachusetts until her death in 1979.

Goodreads review by Joseph on June 27, 2023

Book 81 of the Boxcar Children. Wow even in this time people would do anything for attention. This is a no harm mystery that will leave you hoping for some Scooby snacks. An excellent short read safe for all age groups. ​ Joseph McKnight [URL not allowed]......more

Goodreads review by Ashley Randolph on April 12, 2018

Alright. I’ll be honest. I probably added an extra star since the book is set in my neck of the woods AND refers to Kathryn Tucker Windham although not explicitly by name. I’d guess that Elbow Bend was Gees Bend but I don’t think Gee’s Bend is big enough......more
