Mixing humor with ghosts, demons and witches, The Golden Goblet by Edgar J. Hyde is the fourth book in the Creepers series. Shona MacDonnell is a thirteen-year-old girl born in Scotland but lives in Washington, D.C. with her parents. Granny MacDonnell is her grandmother that still lives in Scotland and visits Shona in her dreams. Granny informs her in a dream that she is dying after suffering from a stroke. Shona is introduced to good ghosts and demons before finding out that she is next in line to be the clan's witch. She is told about the Golden Goblet and the Secret Memory contained within it. The family moves to Scotland due to her dad's job and to be closer to Granny. Shona then meets the bad ghosts and demons in a dream. They tell her of their plans for the Golden Goblet and how their descendant is going to use to rule the world. The second half of the book is better than the first. I give it a solid B mostly because Edgar J. Hyde is mentioned in the Epilogue.
