YMMV / The Castle in the Attic

Go To

In the first book:

  • Alternate Character Interpretation: Calendar—loyal servant of Sir Simon who threw in her lot with the wizard to save herself and perhaps get a chance at revenge later, or one who genuinely fell under the wizard's sway and betrayed her lord, only to change her mind later when she learned how truly awful her master was?
  • Nightmare Fuel: What William sees happen to Mrs. Phillips in the dragon's eyes. Also, the fate of anyone who is turned to lead, and what Alastor saw in the mirror.

In the sequel:

  • Nightmare Fuel: The Rat King itself, and the nature of its horde, as well as what it does to its victims.
