What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

A spellbinding collection of 20 original spooky tales that reimagine witches from folklore, myth, and history. Read them before bedtime or share them to spook your friends–if you dare! “Deliciously terrifying.”–Kirkus Reviews A girl receives a Christmas gift far worse than coal. A strange sideshow lures in new recruits. A birthday party turns into a grisly scavenger hunt. A werewolf stalks a ghostly graveyard. A train ride proves quite deadly. These stories are as enchanting as they are eerie, shining a light on the magical world of these legendary witches. Features stories inspired by Baba Yaga, Marie Laveau, Circe, the Salem Witch Trials, La Lechuza, and more, all brought to life through gorgeous full-color illustrations.
