Puzzle 6 


I recently went to the shop and purchased 4 items.

Three of the items cost:
$1.50
$3.00
$4.00

There was quite a long queue, and as I was quite bored, I was playing with my pocket calculator while I waited.

Very curiously, the 4 prices added to the same number as I got when I multiplied the 4 prices together.

What was the price of the 4th item?

Lucas or Archibald's vacation was at the castle. Was Terrifying Tony the resident ghost there?
Charlie went to stay with friends, this was in a bungalow, but it did not have the name Briar Hill. He was not terrified by Bloodcurdling Brian, the ghost that left bloodstained footprints behind.
Billy vacationed at a place named Rosedale, which was not a hotel.
Creepy Craig really did scare Gary, as he was settling down to sleep, by scraping his fingernails on the bedroom window, this was not at a hotel, and it wasn't a place named Avalon.
The bed and breakfast accommodation was not High Lodge, which was also not the castle where Macabre Malcolm was resident.
