John Tucker Must Die x The Craft HEX GIRLFRIENDS CLUB: A lesbian witch teams up with her nemesis to curse the girlfriend who has been two-timing both of them, but as their revenge plot heats up, sparks fly, making the coconspirators wonder if they should be more than frenemies. #QuestPit #Q #YA #F

Fall-themed background of wood and orange leaves with images of a blonde teen girl, two witches facing away and embracing in front of a fire, a goth teen girl, tarot cards, and mixing spell ingredients in a small cauldron.
