Halloween Witchwood Haul: Lots of witchy fun - Trick-or-treat!

Over $5 value for $1.99 just for Halloween.

Charmed By Witches: The day of his arrival in colonial Massachusetts in 1692, Desmond Harvey is befriended by four witches claiming to be travelers from the 21st century. Being a witch and practicing magic could mean the difference between life and death. Swinging by a tree branch with a noose around your neck was the death part. But there was always a downside to not practicing magic, too. When you needed it the most, it didn't work.

Going Home: The Craft meets Practical Magic - Orphaned at five-years-old, Alexandria Santorini learns she comes from a long line of powerful witches. Twelve years later, Alexandria is going home to Ferntree Falls to claim her inheritance - Witchwood Estate - the home where she was born, and where her parents were murdered. But something very sinister is going on in Ferntree Falls - something that will change Alexandria's life in ways she never imagined. For starters, her new best friend disappears in the sunlight…

Ferntree Falls: On her arrival in Ferntree Falls, Alexandria knows something is amiss. Not only does Andrew, her new best friend disappear in the sunlight, but someone Alexandria thought she could trust is trying to kill her! Perhaps leaving Catnip Cottage and the Barnabys wasn't such a great idea after all.

Cursed: Brought back from the clutches of death by a power she does not understand, Alexandria is focused on getting her life back to normal, whatever that means. With new friends, Andrew, Kat and River by her side, Alexandria lets herself believe that her future is looking promising. Things take a turn, however, when a handsome stranger arrives in Ferntree Falls, and Alexandria begins to wonder if his presence is a blessing or a CURSE.

Trick – or – treat: Some history and myths behind Halloween traditions past and present. Includes the history of brooms in witchcraft, candles, herbs, spells, and so much more.
