Summary "Dan Carter and the Haunted Castle" by Mildred A. Wirt is a children's adventure novel written in the mid-20th century." The story centers around a group of Cub Scouts, particularly focusing on young Dan Carter, as they embark on a thrilling project to stage a play based on the tales of Robin Hood. Set against the backdrop of a mysterious abandoned castle, the boys encounter rivalries, competition, and even hints of supernatural intrigue. "The opening of the book establishes the excitement amongst the Cub Scouts during one of their meetings, where they are introduced to a prize contest to create the best play." The characters are introduced through their interactions, highlighting Dan Carter's intelligence and his rivalry with Ross Langdon, who is determined to outdo him. Upon deciding to adapt a Robin Hood play for the contest, the group learns about an abandoned castle nearby that could serve as their setting. As they prepare for their adventure, Dan discovers a peculiar clue within the castle itself, leading to questions of possible hauntings and creating a sense of mystery that promises further excitement throughout the story.
