Harrowing

The Harrowing was a tradition at the Academy of Unseen Arts to torment young witches by making them endure what the Greendale Thirteen did. Witches have been known to die during the harrowings.

The first night, witches are summoned to the Witch's Cell, where the Greendale Thirteen were held. The witches have to survive the night in the cell as the ghosts of the Greendale Thirteen show themselves that could drive them insane. The second night, the witches walk down the same path the Greendale Thirteen walked to the noose, eyes straight and fixed on the path. The witches stand in front of the tree, standing in the wet, cold night exposed and no shoes. The witches are not allowed to turn around until dawn.
