Mystic Series 3
“An entertaining and engrossing watch… with a likeable cast of teen and adults, this is an easy series to get hooked on” James Croot, Stuff
Based on New Zealand author Stacy Gregg’s bestselling book series Pony Club Secrets, Mystic is an award-winning family action adventure with an ecological theme and a supernatural twist.
This season, Issie’s visions are back and this time Dora’s shipwreck is centre stage alongside a mysterious sea serpent statue. An illegal pirate trawler has been sighted off the coast … is Mystic warning Issie of an impending environmental catastrophe? Or are the visions linked to the sudden arrival of her grandfather, Gordon?
At the stables, the gang conspire to finally get Issie and Dan together. But their plans are thwarted by the arrival of Tom’s cool, fun niece Maia who takes an immediate liking to Dan. And the KP team finally qualify for the Champs. Their biggest threat is the Laurieston Farm team, whose new trainer is willing to do whatever it takes to beat his old rival Tom.
