It might be fear of standing in front of a crowd or just being afraid of the dark - the origin of these fears is always the same - fearing the unknown.

His only chance for survival: Stop Dr. Pravus and win the allegiance of the witch who cursed him.

That last one? Not likely. Professor Murphy hates Runt and is actively trying to fail him.
