A Halloween checklist for the magically suspicious
Waking up with no memory is rough. Waking up with no memory, a talking cat and psychic visions of murder? Your next thought might: Maybe I’m a witch! That’s ✨classic✨ Halloween chaos and exactly what happens to Sakara Decker, Ava’s cousin in The Witch Wears Prada.
Here’s a spooky season checklist to find out if you might be a witch… and just forgot.
1. You touch people and immediately know too much
Suddenly you’re picking up vibes, thoughts, or full-blown flashbacks.
Did you gain a sixth sense or just get cursed by a love potion gone wrong?
2. A black cat won’t stop following you
And not in a “feed me snacks” way.
He’s watching you like he knows something — and honestly?
You’re starting to believe he might talk.
3. You keep getting déjà vu… for things that haven’t happened yet
You knew your ex was going to text you before he did.
You predicted your coworker’s weird Halloween party drama before it unfolded.
You might call it intuition.
The universe calls it premonition.
4. Your diary/journal/spellbook is full of spells and potions you don’t remember writing
Did you actually jot down “How To Get Over Your Ex By Giving Yourself Amnesia,”
or is that just your inner witch trying to protect you from getting back together with your ex?
5. You showed up for Halloween… and it felt like someone else showed up with you
You swear you were just here for the pumpkin cupcakes.
Now you’re in the middle of a murder investigation with your cousin, hearing voices and possibly cursed.
Oops.
Bonus points if there’s frosting involved.
If this all sounds familiar, there’s a story in Clover Creek you might want to read this Halloween.
It’s short, spooky, and involves a mind-reading witch with amnesia, a cousin who just wants a chill October, and a talking cat who’s had enough of your memory problems.
