What is a "monster"? Halloween comes around each year, and each year people think about witches. magic and monsters. But what if monsters weren't what they seem? What if we redefined "monster"? Would we find monsters living among us? In this age of science and technology, people still hunger for magic as seen by the massive success of Harry Potter, Jonathan Strange and Lev Grossman's The Magicians.Witch Ween and the Hallo, however, is the first book to merge the history of Halloween, the timeless Renaissance paintings of Heironymous Bosch and the magic of witchcraft to confront one important idea: monsters do, indeed, live among us and we must see our world from a different perspective to stop them. Imagine stepping into the dark world of Northern Europe in the Sixteenth Century, a world populated by wizards, witches and warlocks only to discover that the most sinister monsters of all live just next door.
In the Hallo lives the wicked Witch Ween, conjuror of evil spells and incantations. All his young life, poor Bosch the cowardly artist has heard rumors of this strange place, but now Ween has placed an evil spell on him and has removed his eyes from his face. To make things worse, she has kidnapped Adele Van Der Maggutseesen, the love of his life, and to get her back, Bosch must carry his eyes on a journey through the land of monsters into the heart of the Hallo, remembering two things:
Some look like monsters. Others ARE monsters.
