Description
"A witch called Old Auntie is lurking near Dan's family's new home. He doesn't believe in her at first, but is forced to accept that she is real and take action when his little sister, Erica, is 'took' to become Auntie's slave for the next fifty years"--,Provided by publisher.
Description
“Folks say Old Auntie takes a girl and keeps her fifty yearsthen lets her go and takes another one.” Thirteen-year-old Daniel Anderson doesnt believe Brody Masons crazy stories about the ghost witch who lives up on Brewsters Hill with Bloody Bones, her man-eating razorback hog. He figures Brodys probably just trying to scare him since hes the new kid . . . a “stuck-up snot” from Connecticut. But Daniels seven-year-old sister Erica has become more and more withdrawn, talking to her lookalike doll. When she disappears into the woods one day, he knows something is terribly wrong. Did the witch strike? Has Erica been “took”?
