Under the Magician's Spell is the 7th book released in the spin-off series Give Yourself Goosebumps. It was released July 1996 on Scholastic Press. The book is just like many of the other books in the series where the reader decides which page to go and which adventure to do, one variation from this book is that the reader gets to draw cards out of a deck. And depending on what card he pulls determines his fate. Some endings in this book vary from being turned into stone forever, falling in an endless blackhole, or being turned into a playful dog.
