Ghost 10

Rotten eggs and poison mushrooms,
This spooky store has it all,
Its customers arrive on brooms,
In this picture book for fall.

33 DemetriosX : For Ghost 10, I did a tagmash on a word in the poem and a word implied by the poem. The first result was the answer.

34 paulmdh : #10 I resorted to Google for this but got many false leads before settling on the right one.
Think about a large store that people on brooms might visit for their weekly shop.

What kind of customers arrive on brooms?

What kind of store sells eggs and mushrooms?

I had this one guessed days ago - but no banner clued me even with refresh. I tried it several times as it seemed so obvious.

Refreshing did not work again, today. I had to re-type title into search engine and come at it that way instead of refreshing. thought i had finally spilled the remaining marbles.

144 TrishX3 : OMG, #10 almost made me lose my mind! The clue is very strict, haha. When you search, make sure that the "customers" are plural.

I swear to God I cannot figure this one out. I've searched via tagsmash for the plural customers and forest, garden, store, apothecary, emporium, shop, store, egg, mushroom, stinkhorn. Nothing is working and Google is not helping lol

>8 bibliogramy: This is practically giving it away:

Customers arrive on brooms = witches
This spooky store = supermarket
You can search for either tag mash or work title
