The Halloween Dance

By Hayley, 11, Illinois

Lily and her friends were very excited about their school's Halloween dance on Friday night. Lily planned on going with her boyfriend, Nic. Her friend Melissa was going with Jake.

After school on the Wednesday before the dance, Lily was outside the school and she saw the word "be" written in red, sloppy handwriting on one of the walls of her school. She shook her head muttering, "whatever" as she walked away. When she told the school principal about it the next morning, he said he hadn't seen any word on the wall after school, and that he could've sworn he'd walked by there on that afternoon.

That day after school on the same wall was the word, "war". Lily ran and got Melissa to show her. When they got there, Lily could still see it. But Melissa said, "I don't see anything. Are you feeling OK?" How could she not see it, Lily thought, it's right there, bright red.

On Friday right out of school, Lily checked the wall. This time it had the letter, "E" on it. Lily was getting really suspicious. She knew it was no use telling anyone, so she went about the rest of her day.

That night at the dance Lily was dancing with Nic and Melissa was dancing with Jake when Jake said, "I have to go to the bathroom, I'll be right back." So he broke away into the mens' bathroom.

Five minutes later, he still wasn't back. Ten minutes. Fifteen minutes had gone by. Finally, Melissa called into the bathroom, "Jake? Are you OK in there?!?" No answer.

Melissa walked all the way into the room, despite the fact that she wasn't sopposed to be in there. Five minutes later, Melissa and Jake were still in the bathroom, and Nic decided he would go in and check on them. So he walked in and Lily waited for them all to come out. She
waited for about five minutes when she decided to check on her friends. Lily opened the door, and saw Jake, Melissa, and Nic on the floor, dead. Their bodies were unmarked, but it was obvious they were dead. All with their eyes open wide in terror.

"Be", "war", and "E" were the short messages on the wall that Lily had forgotten about. She really shouldn't have. If she had remembered them, and put them all together, she would've been able to save her friends' lives. "Be", "war", "E". Look closely at them, what do they spell out? BEWARE.

Poem spell

By Greg, 14, Harrow, UK

1 Tail of Lizard,
4 Wasp stings,
7 Monkeys toes,
9 blind bats wings,

Whisk them up and churn them round,
What a lovely happy sound.
Put them in to a large deep dish,
close your eyes and make your wish.
See it froth and see it splutter,
until It looks like milky butter.
It turns a lovely dark brown green,
make people squirm, make people scream.

Glamouring spell

By Sarah, 13, Liverpool, UK

Find a photo of yourself (one which you think makes you look good.)

Put the photo on a table with a yellow candle lit on either side of it. Gaze at the photo and say:

By the powers of the old ones
I take the gift of glamouring
I attract, I hold, I bind.
So, it is.

Blow out the candles, close your eyes and hold your hands up to your face, imagine the energy flowing from your hands over your face then say:

This mind, this body, holds the power of glamouring
So shall it be, IT IS!

This spell must be repeated every night for 13 nights up till a full moon.
