Summary
Gigi is racing with Fawn after the intro to stop Whisp from creating a "great evil". Whisp proclaims "GiGi...my sister", Gigi gasps, claiming that she's found them, and run away upstairs. After Whisp tells Gigi that she "has something of" hers, Gigi protests to leave Fawn alone, Fawn not knowing who she's talking to.Whisp says Fawn has only one last wish, and to wish the shadow genie all powerful. Fawn repeats it, but Gigi quickly snaps her out of it.

GiGi proclaims that Whisp's influence has grown too strong, and that Grimm's magic mirror will show her who she really is. Whisp claims that Fawn's thoughts are hers, and so now, is Fawn's wish. Gigi scolds her to not be influenced by her, but it's too late! The shadow eclipse has already arrived!While Whisp is still willing to influence her, Gigi quickly runs to Fawn, spinning her around, and showing Fawn her true self. This is such a strong power, being used for the first time, that it breaks the eclipse's coverage and the mirror itself.Gigi says, "The eclipse is over, the danger has passed", and tells Fawn to wish for something; anything.

Milestones

 * The Belfry Prep backgrounder girls make their 3D debut.


 * Scarah Screams makes her 3D debut.


 * Shadow Frankie is polka-dotted on the sleeves, and non-translucent material, more cotton-like, and black with white polka-dots, Howleen's hair is switched from red to pink during the Event Style; and Cleo wears a more Signature-based outfit, while Ghoulia's is less  ' Basic' made, like her Signature outfit; Cleo's more Basic.
 * Whisp's signature outfit is more blue and pink oriented, and her hair is blue with pink highlighting, no gold; while she has Gigi's earrings only smaller, rather than feathers, and has Gigi's eye color, too. Oddly enough, also, her pants and sash also change, matching them blue insist of black.

Continuity

 * When Howleen enters the attic, a purple hat, a magic apple, a ring, and a bottle with purple liquid are on display. These refer to various students and teachers of Ever After High.
 * The mirror Howleen drops and breaks is likely the mirror spoken of in the from Ever After High.
 * As Howleen is walking outside looking for good uses for her wishes, she passes by Rochelle reading a letter and holding a rose petal. These two things are from Garrott DuRoque, with whom she reunited in "Scaris: City of Frights".
 * The Grimm Brothers are characters from Ever After High.
 * Scarah and InvisiBilly are made as a couple, which they are shown to become in "Scarah-Voyant". That webisode did not air until two months after "13 Wishes" premiered, but chronologically comes first.
 * The first ever in-cartoon mention is made of Clawdia Wolf, who would debut properly in "Frights, Camera, Action!".
 * Whisp's motivations and her fragile bond with Gigi are more fully explained in Gigi's 13 Wishes diary, which pays more proper attention to Whisp feeling disposable compared to Gigi.

Errors

 * This is taken place either in 2013 or 2014, but is officially made unclear.


 * Cleo wears a more  'Signature' ' styled outfit in the lantern transformation, with some of her old accessories, while Ghoulia is less  'Basic' ' based.
 * After telling the story of how Whisp came to be, Clawdeen closes the book. When the screen zooms out, it is somehow open again.
 * When Howleen is reading Cleo's invitation, both her ears are upright.
 * When Draculaura is giving Abbey a makeup, her outfits and accessories is invinsible in the mirror reflection.

Other

 * This episode-event of a special is either taken place next year in 2014, or 2013, as placing spinning off with "Boo Year's Eve".
 * Clawdeen is added a finger-ring onto her "School's Out" outfit, which is based as Clawdeen's signature boots, as a black stud-like thing on the ring, which the gem or jewelry-accessory is added with gold buckles; specifically on Clawdeen's right-hand sided middle finger.


 * Scarah's 3D model is based on her San Diego Comic-Con International 2011 prototype rather than the 2012 exclusive doll, and added a holed-at-the-sides headband, with cut-off bangs than longer, front-up bangs like her webisode version. For instance, she has the broader cheeks and the jacket of the prototype. This is a tad curious, considering Wydowna's 3D model, whose history is largely alike but for the fact her doll didn't come out until 2013, is based on her actual doll.
 * Gory's 3D model is updated from its backgrounder-ish previous look to resemble her 2D model more, except for the stockings are now higher, as to not show her upper-above-knee part of legs.
 * As with "Scaris: City of Frights", "13 Wishes" features a lot of fashion. They are: Clawdeen's School's Out outfit, Ghoulia's Scaris: City of Frights outfit and earrings with her Skultimate Roller Maze hairdo, all outfits from the Picture Day fashion line, and the entire 13 Wishes and 13 Wishes - Haunt the Casbah lines.
 * "13 Wishes" technically has three release dates: It premiered in English in the UK during the weekend of September 21st and 22nd. It became available for download on September 26th on websites like iTunes. The DVD was released on the 8th of October and the movie aired on television on the 25th of that month.
 * The DVD of "13 Wishes" contains three webisodes that likely are exclusive to the DVD until some a few months into 2014: "Department of Monster Vehicles", "Royal Pest Sitter", and "Cookie Creeper". It also contains the Ever After High webisode "" as an Ever After High sneak peek.
 * Gory will appear again in Frights, Camera, Action! as she does in the trailer, protesting that Draculaura is the next "vampire queen".
