I’ll see you in your dreams
Please entirely disregard the previous letter – I turned to despair prematurely and I have returned to Barkmouth a hero. Continue reading

Into the Open
I took a deep breath. I didn’t like being such a scaredy-cat, Vera. I addressed the room. “Whoever you are, we’re not here to hurt you. It’s just that you’re scaring the people who live here. Please come out and maybe we can help you.” And I felt a cold hand on mine. Continue reading

In the Face of Failure
I’m sure you must know by now that everything went wrong in our attempts to solve the Green Dragon haunting. We all went looking for the mystery presence that night and at some point, Lucy vanished. And not long after that, Teddy – who I thought would surely be able to help, as our friendly… Continue reading

TEEN MISSING IN MAGICAL MISDEMEANOUR
In further tragic evidence of the impact of the magical agenda, a sixteen year old girl has vanished from the town of St Bernice’s Field. Juvenile witch Lucy Skylark, sixteen, visited The Green Dragon Inn accompanied by another so-called witch-in-training and, after neighbours reported disturbing sounds in the night, has not been seen since midnight… Continue reading

A Haunting to Uncover
Lucy and I are away on some serious witch business! She came at the weekend with a letter from her mentor, Vera. She said that there’s been some strange activity – sounded like a haunting, or some sort of spirit infestation, at a pub. She thought this would take two witches – so we’re both… Continue reading

A mission from a mentor

A friend in St Bernice’s Field runs an old fashioned pub called The Green Dragon Inn and they’ve been bothered by some strange behaviour.

Friends, Ice cream and Monsters
I wasn’t prepared for how strange it would be to go back home, after three months of living apart, as a proper witch! Mum and Dad seemed so pleased to have me back… At first. And I thought they’d be interested to hear my adventures, hear about Suki, Maksym, Bea and Olive, but whenever I… Continue reading

The Exchange
This week I was in a quiet part of town where there are just a couple of specialist shops that are sometimes useful, and I saw my new friend Jacob, professor of natural history and secret witch, walking down the road. He was wearing a dark jacket even though it was warm, his hood up! Continue reading

Making Light of Things
I tried an incantation I’d found from another internet forum, and it worked a little too well. I had to stand on a chair to get the bin down from the ceiling. But I tried the disillusionment spell and, joy of joys, it actually worked! So I tried again and put a little less magical… Continue reading
