The Ghost at Garibald Manor-del 2-Liber 8

assignment task

level-headed calm and sensible

hissing noise a sound like a long /s/

a radio receiver the part of a radio that picks up signals

the device the machine, the gadget

nooks and crannies all the most hidden corners and smallest spaces of a house

winked looked at and briefly closed one eye to show that you are joking

apparently obviously

gestured made a sign to someone by waving a hand

abandoned left behind

examined looked carefully at

coincidence when something unexpected happens which fits perfectly with what is going on

a proper chill a cold, uncomfortable feeling

admit confess

give in to allow a feeling to take over

suspicious when you don't really trust someone

yelp with fear make a sudden, short cry because you are scared

let's not get carried away do not over react

fraud someone who pretends to be something they are not in order to trick people

nonsense silly business

pale white in the face
