That moment when your curse gets sort of lifted, but you just know it’s going to come back soon, and now the Council of Matriarchs is after you…. Joan’s had a rough week. When she was six, she and her entire class were placed under a curse by a teacher suffering from a migraine. It faded pretty quickly, but a few days ago it came back with a vengeance. Now she and a few friends have managed to get the symptoms under control, and they’ve befriended a witch who may be able to help them buck it once and for all. But their teacher has chased them down, and she’s pissed. Plus there’s a bunch of catty old witches who just happen to be super powerful and have taken a distinct dislike to Joan.

She's cursed, surrounded by idiots, and can't find the corkscrew. Something's got to give. Twenty-nine years ago, Joan's first grade teacher, suffering from a migraine, put a curse on her entire class, giving them an electric jolt and taking away their sight and voices. The symptoms faded the next day, but there's reason to believe it'll be back soon – and it's already starting for some. As adults, Joan and a core group of her classmates have been racing against the clock, sifting through any info they can find on the supernatural, with no success. So when Joan comes across a skeleton key that gives her that same jolt, she hopes this may be their first real lead. She calls in reinforcements and they all descend on her house – a stuffy neuroscientist, a yoga teacher to the stars, a pot-smoking ghost hunter, and her sexy on-again-off-again boyfriend. Will Joan be able to find the antidote to the curse before it takes over their lives – and before these wackos drive her completely bonkers? And what'll happen when her boyfriend's witchy ex comes back into the picture? Enjoy Books 1-3 of this hilarious shenanigan-filled series of quick reads by fantasy author Anna McCluskey!

Edgar Award-winning travel writer spends an autumn living in one of America's spookiest tourist destinations: Salem, Massachusetts Salem, Massachusetts, may be the strangest city on the planet. A single event in its 400 years of history—the Salem Witch Trials of 1692—transformed it into the Capital of Creepy in America. But Salem is a seasonal town—and its season happens to be Halloween. Every October, this small city of 40,000 swells to close to half a million as witches, goblins, ghouls, and ghosts (and their admirers) descend on Essex Street. For the fall of 2015, occult enthusiast and Edgar Award–winning writer J.W. Ocker moved his family of four to downtown Salem to experience firsthand a season with the witch, visiting all of its historical sites and macabre attractions. In between, he interviews its leaders and citizens, its entrepreneurs and visitors, its street performers and Wiccans, its psychics and critics, creating a picture of this unique place and the people who revel in, or merely weather, its witchiness.
