[Lauren · Rating 3 out of 5]

In this Halloween-themed episode of "Sabrina the Teenage Witch," Sabrina decides to play matchmaker and help her friend Roxie find a date for the Halloween party. Being a witch, Sabrina initially considers using magic to conjure up a suitable date for Roxie. However, as the episode unfolds, Sabrina learns that relying on magic for matters of the heart isn't the best approach.

I loved all of the Sabrina tales full of magic. Every story was a different adventure and some new and exciting challenge to overcome. These books made me want to have magical powers too but the ending results were hilarious.
