Publisher Description
Anastasia is a completely average almost-eleven-year-old. That is, until her parents die in a tragic vacuum-cleaner accident, she’s rescued by two long-lost great-aunties, and she’s taken to their delightful and “authentic” Victorian home, St. Agony’s Asylum for the Criminally Insane.
But something strange is going on at the asylum. Anastasia soon begins to suspect that her aunties are not who they say they are. So when she meets Ollie and Quentin, two mysterious brothers, the three join together to plot their great escape!

“Narrator Rosalyn Landor’s purposefully pretentious English accent fits this campy horror story…Landor creates a matter-of-fact Anastasia, while Prim and Prude’s voices are appropriately prim and prudish…[with] spooky wailing provided by sound effects.”
