One of two spells on a spell scroll that Ben's team (Team 5 of Series 6) found in the Mines of Gore in Level 3. The scroll read 'TRICK or TREAT?', hinting that the team had to choose only one of the spells to cast (just as householders must opt for either 'trick or treat' on Hallowe'en). They chose and cast TRICK, summoning Hordriss and trapping him.

The team eventually dispelled TRICK (as IKRCT) so Hordriss could return, after persuading him to help with their quest, which he did by donating a SPLASH spell.
