Barbie is one of the top girls' properties - the world's #1 fashion doll. Now Scholastic is on the Barbie bandwagon with stories starring Barbie as a reporter with a nose for a mystery.

Barbie has a brand-new job at the Willow Daily News. Her first assignment is to interview Mr. Willow, the grandson of the town's founder. But something very strange is going on at Mr. Willow's old mansion. A ghostly face keeps appearing at the window, and there are spooky whispers in the wind. Mr. Willow is so scared he's thinking of leaving.

Is the house really haunted? Barbie is suspicious. Could someone be after the Willow fortune? It's up to Barbie and her friends to investigate.
