You, your younger sister, and a friend stumble upon a mysterious magic shop in the mall. Inside, a creepy magician reveals a book of spells—and once opened, you are literally pulled into his workshop, forced to participate in dangerous illusions and facing the prospect of being the next disappearing act. Under the Magician’s Spell blends eerie atmosphere with reader-controlled choices to deliver suspense, puzzle-like challenges, and multiple spooky endings. A fun, interactive twist on classic horror storytelling for middle-grade readers.
You have plans to hang out with your best friend Sid at the mall, but you mom makes you take along your nine year old sister, who always gets into trouble. You find her in a magic shop, where she steals a book of spells. The magician who owns the shop is truly magical and he's really angry too. The three of you make a series of choices that either saves you or gets all three of you eaten by a monster.
Fun book, and a Stine series I'd never heard of.
The book is about a boy and his sister Joanie. Once they meet his friend Sid at he mall, Joanie and Sid disappear and the boy finds a spell and he tries one of the spells. Then the ground shook and the floor was wide open and the boy tried to escape but he fell down under the floor. When he fell down, he saw Sid and his sister Joanie. Then the weird people with black clothes and spells came. What are they going to do?

In my path, my annoying sister, Joanie, finds out I am trying to meet a friend called, "Sid." She comes with me and every adult thinks she is cute and no one knows (except me and my friend) that she likes to touch everything she SEES! So we met at the super market and my sister immediately sees a magician shop. I look at my friend and look back at my sister. AND..................... she is GONE! Me and Sid look all over the super market.............then we see her standing infront of the magician shop! It takes 2 seconds before she is inside! So, you want to know what is gonna happen inside the magician well, READ IT!
