Goblins in the Castle	comment	Goblins in the Castle is a 1992 children's novel written by Bruce Coville. It tells the story of William, a young boy who has lived in Toad-in-a-Cage Castle his entire life. But one night, he meets the mysterious Igor, who lives in the castle dungeons, and soon afterward discovers the strange secret behind the castle's North Tower, which has always been kept locked. When he unlocks it one night, his actions lead him into a dangerous quest to rescue his new friend from the land of the goblins.Goblins on the Prowl (2015) continues the story a year later from the point of view of William's friend Fauna, and reveals both their origins, as well as that of the enormous stone toad that gave the castle its name.Coville's short story "The Stinky Princess", originally published in 1999 in his anthology Odder than Ever and introducing the goblin seer Flegmire (later featured in Goblins on the Prowl) has also been identified as a prequel to the series via the guestbook on his website.The series is part of the same universe as Coville's The Foolish Giant, The Dragonslayers, The Unicorn Chronicles series, the Magic Shop series, and the short story Wizard's Boy (1996)note Collected in Bruce Coville's Book of Magic: Tales to Cast a Spell on You (1996) and The One Right Thing (2008).

When the boy expresses disbelief because she's supposed to old and ugly, she immediately shifts to a more hideous, witch-like form.

Bwoonhiwda later tells the cast that they need to break the spell soon or he'll die of starvation. When Fauna and her group meet the sorceress Sophronia, she reveals she's put herself in an enchanted sleep that lasts about a year, and after a few days awake (to check on the stone toad of Toad-in-a-Cage Castle), returns to it. She's been doing this for seventy-five years.

That spell was placed inside Will Smith, a friend of Edrick (the wizard who cast the original Spell of Stonely Toadification), who can only cast it himself if he's willing to do so (he cannot be forced to perform it). It was also designed to pass on to Will's son, and his son in turn, as each of them died, so Will Smith's only living descendent is the only one who can make Edrick human again. He finally succeeds at the end.

She's very frustrated when people have a hard time understanding her as a result, and takes considerable offense when people make jokes that rely on her speech impediment (as Igor learns the hard way when she says that "We must sweep!" and he responds with "Can't sweep! Got no bwoom!"). She later explains to Fauna that her parents had the same problem, which is why her name really is Bwoonhiwda and not Brunhilda, as Karl initially assumed when she first introduced herself.

But they can also do some more dangerous ones, such as putting soap on the stairs, which could cause someone to slip and break their neck (which nearly happens to Karl when he slips on a soap-coated step and falls on his rear, sliding the rest of the way down them). Rather fittingly, Goblins on the Prowl reveals that a group of goblins is properly called a "mischief".

Goblins in the Castle / int_5beef860	comment	Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Goblins, who prefer the cool underground, fear fire and its heat. Ishmaelnote Don't call him that! and the old Baron used this to their advantage, lighting a ring of fire to trap the goblins so they couldn't get away while the sorcerer worked the spell that drew their spirits out of their bodies and imprisoned them. Herky at least isn't fond of water, as he scrambles up William's leg to avoid getting wet in a river, panics when it starts raining, and really freaks out when they have to cross under a waterfall. However, Nilbog is full of rivers and waterfalls, so it's not a species-wide trait.

Goblins in the Castle / int_68da6712	comment	Canon Welding: While the original story was a standalone, follow-up material connected it to some of Coville's other works. The 2008 short story The Boy With Silver Eyes features both the goblins' home of Nilbog and a Guardian of Memory from The Unicorn Chronicles, revealing those settings are connected, and by extension the Magic Shop series (both The Unicorn Chronicles and the Magic Shop series have mentioned the wizard Bellenmore, who helped the dragons leave Earth when it was too dangerous for them to remain). Goblins on the Prowl elaborates on this, explicitly mentioning Bellenmore and the departure of the dragons, along with mentioning the events of The Dragonslayers (that book's Princess Wilhelmina is noted as now being Queen of the Forest of Wonder) and The Foolish Giant as having happened in the past, with Harry (the titular giant) being a cousin of the father of Bonecracker John, who's a friend of Igor's and tells the story to he and his traveling companions. The story's villain, an evil wizard who ends up being hit with his own Spell of Stonely Toadification, is actually the giant stone toad of Toad-in-a-Cage Castle. And he's also not actually evil — it was an act to acquire the Artifact of Doom he was trying to get away from the villagers.

Goblins in the Castle / int_6e37c196	comment	Once Done, Never Forgotten: "Bonecracker" John the giant has a reputation for viciousness as a result of an incident long ago — when a person is afraid in his presence, it makes him hungry. If he's hungry, he's likely to eat that person. When the knight Sir Mortimer falsely accused him of devouring cattle and stealing young maidens, John picked him up to discuss things, but Sir Mortimer was overcome with fright, triggering John's hunger reflex... so to save Sir Mortimer's life, he threw him far, far away. The landing broke just about every bone in Sir Mortimer's body (which is not what John intended to do), and ever since then, he's been known as Bonecracker John, which does not please him (Igor, on the other hand, thinks he should be proud of it).

As a result of the events of the book though, she's freed of the spell keeping her from aging. Edrick guesses that since she was in the same area as he was when he used the Black Stone of Borea to perform the Spell of Stonely Toadliness that was reflected back on him, she got caught up in the backlash and became stuck at her current age, but also lost her memories and ran off into the woods. When he was turned back to flesh and spat out the Stone, she began aging again as normal. The sorceress Sophronia has been visiting the Baron for years, but never looks any older.

It grants the user the ability to project out of their body, and is mostly safe, but has a time limit of two hours before the drinker is shut out of their body. Also, they aren't completely invisible — some people can see them out of the corner of their eye, and others will think they've seen a ghost. Fauna gifts it to William (since she's wearing the gift that was meant for him and can't get it off), who ends up using it to keep in contact with Fauna and the others who are following after him to rescue him when he's abducted by the giant toad.

In Goblins on the Prowl, according to Herky, the gobliness Flegmire has a reputation for eating bad little goblins, and he was always warned about her by his mother. Wongo the troll, however, reassures the group that Flegmire is harmless, and the goblin mothers just use her to scare their children into behaving.

Goblins in the Castle / int_d397657d	comment	Hoist by His Own Petard: As explained in the in-universe historical tale of "The Foolish Giant", an evil wizard threatened to turn the titular giant into a giant stone toad. When he did cast the spell, it bounced off Harry's shaving mirror and turned the wizard into a giant stone toad instead. Later subverted when it turns out the mirror was designed to reflect magic, and the wizard had purposely worn an amulet designed to draw that magic to him so he would get turned into a stone toad.

When Fauna finally gets a look at her, she finds that lindlings look pretty much like regular dragons (snaky body, four short legs and two bat-like wings), just much smaller.

She still gives Fauna a piece, just in case, which comes in handy when the Baron suddenly collapses and seems to be dying — the specipe saves his life, but won't wake him up.

She always yells (because of her bad hearing), and uses her mutilated finger (which is missing its last joint) to scare William into behaving, claiming that Granny Pinchbottom will bite off the end of his finger too if he doesn't keep out of the sweet jar. She's also not the best at keeping the castle clean, as evidenced by her letting the laundry sit for months and not bothering to dust the castle for even longer (William notes that he likes to write his name in the dust, and the only signatures that are gone are those that have been covered with new dust). But she's really harmless, and a good cook. She's also genuinely worried about the Baron when he falls into an enchanted sleep in Goblins on the Prowl.

Played straight with the evil sorcerer Ishmaelnote Don't call him that!, who claims the goblins only caused "chaos", and that "Nothing could be settled, nothing could be quiet, nothing could be calm while they were around. It was like having too many children." He then calmly reveals the trickery he used to lure the goblins into a trap, to William's horror.
