The Garden is bewitched!

At Halloween, the boundaries between the real and unreal worlds fade... The Sorcerer Kalbacius is back, flanked by his creatures and—surprise!—his apprentice Petiole, who is about to graduate as a Sorceress. Sign up for bewitchment classes and help Petiole learn and test her skills before midnight on October 31! To your spell books, everyone!
