Luna and Benjamin are the “Monstercatchers”! Luna is 8 years old and lives in the orphanage of a small town called Stranevie. She is no ordinary little girl: she is curious, brave, empathetic, and has a great passion for everything related to abandoned mansions, cemeteries, and monsters of all kinds. During one of her nocturnal escapes to Villa Lugubre, the spooky house at the top of the hill, she meets the ghost Benjamin. Luna has a brilliant idea: why not create a gang of Monster Snatchers and hunt down ghosts? After all, there is something hovering over Stranevie and it’s time to find out what it is!
The spectre of Villa Lugubre is the first episode of the series The Monstercatchers, written by Alessandro Ricci and illustrated by Martina Naldi (Giunti, October 2024)
