I asked when you just asked 2 questions Betty if they were your last 2 but you didn't answer me. Is this now your last one or are there more you haven't solved

I've solved the anagram but where does the seen but not heard come into it?

Rossim, the clue is from the latest Rainbow Quiz, that wonderful charity puzzle. There's always a theme - this time the answers have letters that are 'seen but not heard'. The closing date for the puzzle is 31st May.

I have an answer of (5,5), not (6) as in OP, but I can't say they are "seen but not heard"?
I could be on the wrong track, though.

Rusty you are almost there the key part of the clue now
"the setting for this horror story" leads to a 6 letter name

Thank you, Escher!

Yes, Rusty, it was a ghost (another silent letter!) anagram in reverse. I think that's the best way of explaining it.
