    Bug #: 53420. I could repro on our internal build. Thank you.
    She's got some sassy dialogue, that one.

    Without giving too much away, I'll just say that the children have a random chance to give you the quest and it just may be that you haven't triggered the proper response yet. In other words, they're sparkly not because they're going to give you a quest the first time you talk to them, but because they have a quest that you might be able to trigger under optimum circumstances.

    Today, I talked to a lot of children in Harvest. I used keywords - not underlined - and got the information about the house on the hill and the ghost witch, and what happened to her daughter. Also the warning not to be there at midnight.
    But no further information to do something.
    I visited the house, waiting from dusk til dawn ;)
    Nothing happened.
    Any clue, @Sannio?

    I'm curious about some of the steps you've taken to enter the house, but I'll put my questions in a spoiler tag.
    1. When you talked to the children with this session, did you ever get the task that reads "Stay in House on the Hill Until Witch is Gone"? You have to have received this task for the "event" to happen in the house at night.

    2. With this character, have you ever gotten the task above at any time prior to this session? If you have ever gotten this quest before, you should be able to return to the house whenever you want. (The children will imply this after you complete the quest.)

    No, I've never received your mentioned tast from any child. There must be a word, I have not seen until now :(
    I will try it next time again ...

    I tried again to talk with the child "Sergeant" and the child "child". No word I entered gave any hint to me or a Journal entry.
    "But don't go there at night, or the witch will get you!"
    So I would be very happy for a hint. Which words do I have to enter so the child starts the "House on the Hill" quest?
    Thank you @Sannio!

    Unfortunately, you talked to the one child who doesn't believe in the witch. Sergeant is all business and doesn't have time for rumors.

    All you should have to say is this:
    Use this keyword: hello

    @Sannio:
    I also talked to the girl "child", at the scarecrow.

    Now it is intersting:
    TODAY, I met her again and she DAREd me - without doing or saying anything to her! - to enter a haunted house at night and stay until the witch was gone - including the Journal task!
    I just double clicked on here ...
    So, it feels, there is a kind of bug.

    I talked before to a few childs - including her - and no one dared me ...

    I am confused about this ...
