A boy buys a special box from Sardo's Magic Mansion (or some meager substitute) and finds himself with a genie that grants his every command...with a price...

"Terrible"

By chasmatic, Jun 09, 2006

This is by far the worst episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark. Sardo, usually comical has been degraded to a small room of a couple odds and ends, even toting a head covering. The plot is just so silly...there is no spooky, creepy...or interesting for that matter portion of this tale. It just goes on, getting worse and worse. Very disappointing. And does the title "The Tale of the Time Trap" have anything at all to do with the story?moreless
