Stanley家有五個小孩，其中David 是老大，當媽媽過世之後，他就負起照顧弟妹的責任，後來爸爸再婚，新媽媽Molly也有一個小孩Amenda。當他們搬到現在這個鄉下的大房子之後，Amenda也跟著搬來。她是個很奇怪的人，對超自然及巫術有很大的興趣，於是她答應要收其他的小孩當學生，教他們學習巫術，而這時家裏奇怪的事也一件接著一件發生，到底是怎麼一回事呢？這跟傳說中過去的屋主有什麼關係嗎？適合12歲以上兒童閱讀。Snyder has won three Newbery Honors and other awards for her novels, including those starring the Stanley children. Here they are embroiled in the occult when they meet their new stepsister, Amanda, an aspiring witch. PW praised this book as "exuberant and original," and a new generation of readers are sure to agree. This is the first of seven Snyder titles to be released periodically in paperback editions.
