Gingerbread, gremlins, and holiday hijinks are decking the halls in Willow Hollow, where festive fun takes a mysterious—and mischievous—turn.

Harper Dade is eagerly anticipating the Gingerbread Extravaganza, Willow Hollow's most magical holiday event filled with cookie decorating contests and candy cane delights. But when a visiting sorcerer is found buried behind a life-sized gingerbread house, the seasonal cheer takes a dive sharper than a sled on icy pavement. Trouble seems to find Harper like powdered sugar on a donut, but this time, it's knocking on her door with jingle bells on.

Knox, her ever-snarky black cat familiar, usually pounces at the chance for adventure, yet even he's wary of this wintry mess. As Harper unravels the sugary clues, she discovers the sorcerer had been meddling with something far darker than festive confections. He accidentally unleashed a horde of gremlins, and they're wreaking havoc all over town—sabotaging decorations, spoiling treats, and turning holiday cheer into chaos. To make matters worse, these mischievous creatures can shapeshift into anyone, turning Willow Hollow into a puzzling game of who's who.

With her Aunt CeeCee acting more peculiar than usual and Crank Cranson—the ever-enigmatic wizard mechanic—popping up at the most unexpected moments, Harper's got her hands fuller than a holiday cookie platter. The gremlins' antics are escalating, and if she doesn't figure out their frosty scheme soon, the entire town might plunge into a not-so-merry disaster.

As the countdown to the big holiday celebration begins, Harper must race against the clock—and the snow—to restore order. Navigating through enchanted gingerbread houses, deceptive illusions, and magical mayhem, she aims to save Willow Hollow's holiday spirit before it's lost.
