Alternative way to get rid of the Hag, Jester and poltergeist

[Alternative way to get rid of the Hag, Jester and poltergeist]

My favorite poltergeist situation is when i shows up late in the game near the healer card when someone is making their move to the crown of command.

[Flying Carpet and Riding Horse.]

We also play that you must choose whether you are trying to ride the carpet (1 dice) or riding horse (2 dice) before rolling.   We play the same way in regards to Death as well.   In our games you only get to move him if you roll a 1 while only rolling a single dice for movement.

[Different sized adventure cards]

What version of the game are you using?   Sounds like you are trying to use the expansions with the Black Industries 4th edition game.   The 4th edition upgrade pack will upgrade the cards to the same size as the FF expansions.
