Here are the Beast family and their friends.
The Beast family have an invitation from
Count Dracula. Mr Beast is reading the invitation.
Dear Beast Family and friends,
I am having a Halloween party at my
castle in Transylvania. Please come and
stay for 3 or 4 days. Lots of my friends
are coming – we can have great fun!!!
You can travel from London to Romania
by plane, train, bus or car. The nearest
airport is Bucharest. You can hire a car
at the airport and drive to my castle.
When you arrive you must look for the
steps, because it is
difficult to climb up the
hill to the castle!
See you at the party!
Count Dracula
