When a mysterious stranger invades Amethyst, Illinois, stealing souls to feed a demon and generally ruining Halloween for the local kids, three witches join forces to take him on. This novelette reunites Mara, Gus, Aunt Tillie, and Grundleshanks the toad (from the Toadwitch paranormal series) with Stacy Justice, the Geraghty Girls, and Thor, the Great Dane (from the Stacy Justice paranormal mystery series).
As Gus, Mara, and Stacy band together, they're bossed around by the cantankerous ghost of Mara's Aunt Tillie, tripped up by the spirit of Lord Grundleshanks the poisonous toad, backed up by Stacy's grandmother's coven, and given assistance by a local hoodoo master--in between episodes of Antiques Road Show, that is. But they're still in for the Samhain of their lives. If they don't stop the stranger's nefarious plan, the only thing they can count on is that all three of their souls will be at risk! This is a quirky paranormal adventure that combines thrills and chills with all-out spooky fun. It's a fun, fast-paced read meant to tide readers over until Miller's and Annino's next full-length novels are released. However it also works as a standalone to introduce new readers to the world of the main characters. It includes short excerpts from the paranormal novels Somebody Tell Aunt Tillie She's Dead and Opal Fire.
