A change was coming,
and nobody knew it
but me.
Constance Doenkerbos loves her sister Meerkat and her cousin Sjarel. Uncle Jul loves writing very much, but he doesn’t love Sjarel. And Meerkat doesn’t like her cousin at all. Oh no, she loves dangerous mushrooms, mad kings and magic spells. The Doenkerbos family lives a secluded life on an estate on the outskirts of the village. There used to be seven of them, but four family members were mysteriously poisoned.
Since then, the villagers have treated the Doenkerbos family with suspicion and hostility; only Meerkat still dares to leave the estate. When Sjarel starts acting strangely, sparks really start to fly …
Behind the stately façade lies a heart that beats strongly.
Stef Lernous previously created Bangerik and Groezel for hetpaleis. Now he has adapted the last book of Shirley Jackson, the American author of blood-curdling stories. With CASTL, the novel is being staged for the first time by a first-rate cast: Janne Desmet, Lotte Diependaele, Bart Hollanders, Manou Kersting and Maja Westerveld.
