“But we’ve looked all over the house,” Bess said, munching on a cookie. “And we didn’t find anything except for a bunch of initials.”

“You haven’t looked all over the house,” Mia called out over her shoulder as she left the kitchen.

“That’s true! We haven’t looked in the basement yet,” Jo pointed out. “Don’t you want to see the secret room where we found the horses and the brass ring?”

Nancy nodded. “That’s a great idea!”

“But what if the ghost lives down there?” Bess said nervously.

“Bess! There are no ghosts!” Nancy reminded her.

“I agree with Bess. I think ghosts are totally real,” Jo said.

“Well, ghost or no ghost, we should still check out the basement,” Nancy declared.

The girls finished their snacks. Then they headed down to the basement. Nancy took the flashlight with her.

The basement was dark and musty-smelling. There were cardboard boxes, dusty old furniture, and broken toys everywhere.

“This way,” Jo said, leading the girls through a narrow doorway.

They found themselves in a small, dimly lit room. Nancy felt cobwebs brushing against her bare arms. She shivered.

Jo pointed to a small wooden door on the far wall. The blue paint on it was chipped and faded. “That’s the door Mia and I found last spring,” she said in a low voice. “No one knew it was there because a bunch of cardboard boxes were piled in front of it. It leads to the secret room.”

The four girls walked carefully to the door. Jo reached out to open it.

Just then, Nancy heard a noise. “What’s that?” she whispered.

It sounded like music coming through the door. The music was scratchy and spooky-sounding.

“It’s . . . it’s a song,” George said nervously.

Nancy recognized the song. “It’s ‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’!” she exclaimed.
