Witchy Ways (2024)

[bunniefuu]

Danni?

Danni! Danni!!

Wolf and horse true

signs of might.

Share your strength

with me tonight.

The pain and shame, Melissa,

Sarah, and Stephanie meanly

give,

must be cleansed,

and sent back so they may live,

to see and feel

what they have done,

and right their ways

so good,

or harm will come.

Send back my pain,

and school them right,

and cause them to feel

my righteous might.

- Nina! It's Melissa!

- Robby said I should apologize.

Is anyone home?

Nina? Hello?

Nina?

Nina, are you o

The ocean is

in our eyes

and as we watch

the sun rise

so does the tide

But unfortunately,

when I said we

I meant me and my mind

The destination

is on your right.

One hundred and

eleven Foggy Lane.

Hello?

Oh.

Okay.

- You've reached Mary.

- Leave a message.

Hey, I made it.

I don't think the place has

actually changed at all

in the last 40 years

since you were here.

That painting that you always

talked about is actually still

hanging over the fireplace.

And wow.

The moon.

I wish you were here to see it.

Well

not sure what I'm

gonna do with myself

all the way out here

in the boondocks,

but you said to give

it three months,

so I will, for you.

Anyway.

I love you, Mama.

Oh, wow.

You got

the rose quartz?

I did.

Okay, perfect.

- - We invite

positive energy, love,

greatest good into

our energetic space.

We release our fears

that hold us back,

and invite in something new.

Oh!

Are you lost?

I'm sorry, I uh-.

I saw a suspicious person, and

Your friend.

Thought maybe she

was trespassing,

and so I followed

her, and then I

I saw a bunch of flames,

and I thought, oh my

God, there's a fire.

So I thought I

was concerned, and

I just didn't know anybody

else was gonna be here, so

I have it in the

property description

that I live in the cottage.

I own the property. I'm Danni.

Oh, I'm Eve.

- Hi.

- My mother's the one

that actually booked

the house, so...

Oh, you received

a box last week.

It's under the

desk, in the office.

Thanks. Oh, actually,

there was a guy in the driveway.

He looked a little sketchy.

- Burly guy?

- I'd say so.

Just a neighbor.

Alright.

Goodnight. Have fun.

- Goodnight.

- Ah, okay. All right.

Is Robbie

lurking again?

Apparently. Where were we?

I release fear and

call in something new.

- Oh.

- Oh wow.

Oh my God.

Hey, did you just get back?

About half an hour ago.

Huh.

Oh my god, Evie, that sweater.

Where did you find that?

I haven't seen it in years.

I got a big box of stuff that,

um, mother must have sent.

I'm sorry.

Damn. You okay?

There's an envelope.

Well, what are you waiting for?

You.

"My darling, Evie."

"Surprise!"

"I know you told me

that I could throw away"

"all your old boxes,

but I couldn't."

"Sue me."

"I thought it would be fun to

have some of your stuff with us"

"when we trip down memory lane."

"Can't wait to explore

our past together."

"Happy birthday

Munchkin. Love, Mama."

And look!

There's this.

Your old camera.

How is the house?

It's cute.

I don't know how long I

can last out here, though.

I mean, honestly, this place

might've been magical

for my mother, but

it's just a house

on the edge of the forest

in the middle of nowhere.

You love the forest.

We used to spend hours

playing in the woods

when we were kids.

We did have some fun, yeah.

Skinny dipping with

the LaBok boys.

Not our best moment.

The look on your mom's face

when she caught us buck naked,

jumping off that sketchy rock

into the water.

It was priceless.

I think she actually

wanted to join us.

It was the boys being

there that freaked her out.

Your mom could always sense

when you were getting

in over your head.

Yeah, it was so annoying.

Yes, it was very annoying.

Stop making me yawn.

Go to bed, Thelma.

Night, Louise.

Hey, uh, thanks for calling me.

Um, so the-the bulb

in the kitchen,

it keeps flickering,

and then the bulb in the-the

bedroom blew out, so...

Okay. Thank you.

- Hi.

- Oh, hey.

For you. Welcoming present.

Yeah, I, uh, I make them.

I sell them on Etsy.

Thank you. That's so nice.

Hi, babe.

- Hi.

- I forgot. Um

- Hi!

- Hi.

You left this at

my place last week.

Oh, oh, I could have

gotten this later.

S'pose you could have.

Alright. Ro, you know what?

I'll-I'll call you later.

Okay, later then.

So wanna tell me which light?

Oh, it's the light

over the kitchen table

that's flickering.

What?

Sorry for your loss.

It's in your eyes.

Your mom, right?

Must have been recent

since you made the reservation

only a month ago.

Um, actually, will you, uh,

take this into the

kitchen for me?

I just have a few

work calls to make.

- Yeah.

- Thanks.

I'm around if you need me.

Sounds good.

- Oh. Come on phone.

- I know you're here somewhere.

Nina.

Behave yourself.

I'm bored.

Well, come up with

another way of having fun.

Let's play remember when!

Remember when we went with mommy

to pick strawberries,

and we ate them all

before we can pay for them?

And she pretended

like she was mad,

but she really wasn't?

- Fred, honestly

- Remember?

I told you

when I left, I was done.

Nina, you better go now.

All I'm asking for

is one more campaign.

- It's important.

- It's just hair, Fred.

You can get someone else.

You're my best ad

executive, Eve.

I promised my mother

that I would take time...

You'll never last

in the wilderness.

It's not you.

You need structure, a plan.

How do you know what I need?

I don't even know what I need.

Work remotely. I don't care.

In the end, you

know you'll do it.

But fine. Tell me yes, tomorrow.

Fine.

All fixed.

Oh, that was fast.

It was just a loose wire

in the light fixture.

Ran into it before,

so pretty easy fix.

Okay.

Hey, that's a really sweet shot.

Oh, thanks.

Oh, there.

Um, okay, well,

I'll-I'll see you out.

Is that what you

do? Photography?

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

I'm a brand marketer.

Oh.

You know, people overlook

little creatures all the time,

but they each have a

magical purpose on earth.

Like your beetle.

It symbolizes renewal,

resurrection, self-preservation.

Cool.

Well, thanks for

coming out on short notice.

I appreciate it.

Yeah, sure.

That's what I'm here for.

- Okay.

- Bye.

Bye.

Oh my God.

She's gonna think I was like.

Watching

her?

You were, but so what it's been

how long since you

No. Do not say her name.

- Five years.

- A much happier,

and saner five years.

Well, is she cute?

Um, she's actually

a little creepy.

I accidentally looked in the

window of her place last night.

And she's creepy?

Well, there was

this suspicious girl

wandering in the yard,

and I wanted to make sure she

wasn't a squatter, or something.

- Uh huh.

- I don't know.

There's something about

her that's just weird.

I can't quite put

my finger on it,

but she makes me nervous.

Confession.

Fred called.

He said the Egan account

wants to pull the campaign

if I'm not heading it up.

You told him you were done.

It was your mom's dying wish.

Oh, don't be so dramatic.

We're talking two,

maybe three more months, tops.

You were only supposed to be

there for three more months.

Come on.

Fred made you so many promises

when you took that job.

Most of which he broke.

He is like an

a*usive relationship.

You know it'll

eventually hurt you

and you're too

scared to walk away.

That is so not fair.

Think about this.

Right now you are sitting alone

in that house

instead of being there

with your mom. Why?

Because she died!

No! She asked you to

go there for years.

It was important to her,

but you gave all your

time to that job,

and none to anything

or anyone else,

including your ex.

And although I did not like her,

- and she did cheat on you.

- Yes, she did.

I have to be honest.

What did you expect?

There has to be two parties

present in a relationship.

Just don't waste another minute

on a job you don't even like.

Cut him off, Thelma.

Fine, Louise.

I need more wine.

Oh crap.

Oh!

It's alright. Leave

it, leave it, I'll um

I'm sorry.

- I'll fix it later.

- I

can come back another time.

What broke?

Um, it's just that

the sink is leaky,

but it's not a big deal.

Yeah, I can come back later.

No, it's an easy fix.

It's an easy fix.

I'll be back in the jiffy, Ro.

- Yeah?

- If you wanna hang.

Yeah, just don't take too long.

You know I bore easily.

Hi.

Hi.

Not the hot water!

Aaaah!

sh*t.

This is my life.

Like this morning

I couldn't find the coffee,

and then I went to

get the frying pan

in the lower cupboard,

and there it was.

I do

sh*t like that all the time.

Where are you?

I'm at Kiki's.

You know, she wanted me to try

out her ridiculous new sauna.

I not mad at it.

You've

been served Danni.

- This house is over.

- Hold on a sec'.

Why are you doing this?

- What is going on?

- There's gotta be

a way to fix this.

- There's gotta be.

- There's some

- Is it money?

- Crazy guy

- You think I want your money?

- fighting with Danni.

After what you did to my sister?

How is that gonna help?

I am gonna

take possession of this house,

and I am gonna burn it down.

You try to stop me.

All right. He's leaving.

Seriously though,

I'm not exaggerating.

Between everything

in this stupid house

going haywire,

and my stuff going

missing, I'm just

You've had huge changes

in your life very quickly.

Of course, you're a little off.

I thought you quit.

I did.

What if

what if it's not that?

Don't even go there.

I can't help it.

Early onset Alzheimer's

is hereditary.

You don't have it.

You tested.

It's not definitive.

Don't go down the rabbit hole.

Once you settle in,

things will get back to normal.

Spirits of the

sun and moon, day and night.

Infuse this candle

with the power to protect.

Cedar oil, guard us

against the anger.

Rosemary, cleanse

the negativity.

It's for protection.

Oh, hi.

Um, I never noticed it before.

Protection from what?

Mmmm, whatever.

- Oh.

- Going somewhere?

Uh, yeah. I was actually

gonna go on a little hike.

I saw a path near your

place that looked cool.

Oh yeah, you should.

There's tons of

really cool trails.

You know what? I'll

lock up when I leave.

Okay. Oh, actually, um,

there's a room that's locked.

Oh, yeah, uh,

it just sort of acts

like a storage unit for me.

I keep some personal

items in there.

Okay. All right.

Was just wondering.

Eve?

Hmm.

Rosie's uh, is just a friend.

It's none of my business.

- What Fred?

- I sent the files.

Lemme know if you

have any questions.

I didn't say I do it.

You will.

Call me when you've had a look.

Boo!

Tag, you're it.

No!

Tag! You're it.

Oh!

Oh.

- You-you all right?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm fine. What-what

were you doing?

What?

You yelled "you're it."

Oh.

Who's it?

I-I was, uh, I was

talking to the house.

Uh, no, I-I know,

it's really silly.

It's just like, well,

I-I miss my family

and this makes me

feel closer to them.

Like they're still here.

Did you grow up in this house?

Yeah, yeah.

It's been in my family

for generations now.

What?

What's your mother's name?

Lynn.

Why?

My mother was Mary Everly.

Wait, what?

The Mary Everly?

Like, my mom's Mary?

Yeah.

The reservation was

under Mary Parker.

Oh, that's her married name.

Holy sh*t!

Yeah.

Do you wanna have lunch?

Lunch?

You eat lunch, right?

Oh.

I thought maybe if you

came back before I left, um

Well, I ran out and

got some sandwiches.

Do you want a sandwich?

Na-no, I can't.

Um, I actually, I have,

I have to work, so

Oh, well, then I'll just

leave one here for you.

I'm vegan, so hopefully

you'll like them.

I have, um, veggie

ciabatta, and, uh,

vegan tofu tuna salad.

And I'll eat either.

It-it's okay. Really.

You need to eat.

I don't need two.

Okay, fine. Uh,

I'll take the tuna.

Tuna it is.

And maybe someday we can

eat a sandwich together.

Oh, it's a

it's raining.

Whooo!

But one of the pack members.

had been missing.

For some reason.

Temporarily and forever.

I saw the depression.

I saw the

mournful howls.

Constantly watching

Hey Beth, you're working late.

Fred wanted me to

set up the initial

meeting with PK and

the Pearson Group.

Can you let me know

a few times that work for you?

Yeah, anytime works for me.

I'm wide open.

Okay, then. I'll be in touch.

Okay.

Whatcha doin'? Wanna chat?

Happy

birthday to me.

The forest reminds me

of the one behind

our place in Connecticut.

It's beautiful,

peaceful,

just like you said it would be.

Hi, baby.

I'm sure you had

a ton of adventures here.

Yeah, I parked a

little ways down,

so I'm just gonna

cut through here.

Yeah, I'll be quiet.

Hi.

Well, I know I

was always annoyed

when you talked like

magic was real.

Now I, I don't know.

I kind of hope to be surprised,

and discover that

you were right.

I could use a little

magic right now.

I love you, mama.

Miss you.

- Hey.

- Were you sleeping?

It's like eight-fifteen

out there.

Ugh, it's exhausting

doing nothing.

I'm not liking

this new lazy you.

You okay?

Just feeling sorry

for myself, I guess.

You need supplements

or something.

- You need to find a local doc

- You know what?

Every once in a while

it would be great if you just

let me feel sorry

for myself for one minute.

Okay?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I've

had this migraine

off and on for days.

It's driving me crazy.

- What's wrong?

- Other than your migraine.

- I wish you were here.

- Oh sh*t.

I need human contact.

- I'm a shitty, shitty friend.

- It's your birthday.

It's okay. It's not a big deal.

- No, it is, I'm sorry.

- Fine, it's fine.

I don't wanna talk about it.

It's too pathetic.

Alright. Uh, what about,

the handy girl?

I mean, isn't there

something else she can fix?

She brought me a sandwich.

Ooh, you had lunch together.

No. No. I said no.

For Christ's sake, why?

What are you watching?

- "While You Were Sleeping."

- Ooh, I like that one.

'Til I fell asleep,

32 minutes in.

So why?

Well for starters, it turns

out she's Lynn's daughter.

Holy sh*t.

Well, all the more reason

to say yes to lunch.

No, I think she was asking

me on like a lunch date.

So?

So, the fact that

she knows things about mother

that I don't even know?

It's just, it's

way too intimate.

I think a fling is

just what you need.

I don't fling.

If you don't have sex

with someone soon your

vag*na is going to dry up

and fall out.

Then where will you be?

Oh my God.

Okay, cued.

Okay.

Go.

Why did I agree to do this?

Oh.

Ow.

Aaah.

You okay? Hi!

Yeah,

I'm-I'm good.

- Want me to read your cards?

- No, thanks.

I'm not really into that.

You don't have to be into

it for them to make sense.

Are you scared?

No.

Okay, fine.

Twist in my arm.

Read my cards.

All right. Make a wish,

or hold an intention.

Something you wanna manifest

this month, or over

the next six months.

Then cut the deck into thirds

and re-stack in any

order that you want.

Okay.

Like that?

All right.

All right.

The hermit.

Oh, that seems appropriate.

Well, he's alone on

a snowy mountain top.

He's on the path

of self-discovery.

This tells me

that you're seeking answers,

answers that might

be long buried.

Answers that reveal

you to yourself.

Oh.

Oh, that's terrifying.

Everybody says that.

But the death card

is misunderstood.

Alright? The dark colors,

stand for mourning and mystery.

The white horse

purity and strength.

Together, they symbolize

birth, rebirth,

change, transformation.

You might be facing

the realization

that you're at the end

of a major aspect of your life.

And

strength.

The lion is pure,

raw animal instincts,

but the woman tames them

with her inner strength.

And this right above her head,

this sign symbolizes

the infinite potential,

and her wise, centered, self.

Use your inner strength

during this transitional time.

Feel the fear and

walk right through it.

Hmm.

Looks like

a storm is coming.

Are you gonna...

Oh, no. You go, you go.

There's a new moon at five.

I'm, uh, gonna stay

and see her in.

Oh, well, not much

to see.

Especially when

it starts raining.

You're gonna get drenched.

I don't mind. I love

the rain and, um,

I'm prepared.

Okay, well, thanks for reading.

Yeah. You sure I

didn't freak you out?

No!

- Okay.

- Okay.

- Bye.

- Bye.

I invite all positive energies,

and greatest good,

into my energetic space.

Goddess.

You showed me the empress,

and I can feel her abundance.

And I can feel my connection to

my feminine power in a new way.

And I feel it's

connected to Eve, but

she makes me doubt my intuition.

So I'm asking,

as I've done before,

is this the person I

should open my heart to?

With this new moon,

And within the safety

of her darkness,

I acknowledge my fears

and I release them,

and I follow the

guidance of the empress.

And let love in.

Hey, listen,

thanks for the materials,

but I'm not sure what

creepy green caterpillars

have to do with hair products.

Upload the PK art. Please.

Well, hello!

- - The Luna

caterpillar represents

new ideas, renewal,

and unexpected outcomes.

Like the caterpillar,

we may sometimes feel like our

guts are being ripped apart,

but be patient.

The Luna moth takes

up to a year to mature,

but when she's ready,

she comes out of her cocoon

whole, beautiful and free.

And we can too, if,

like the caterpillar

we set aside what we once knew

to fully embody

a whole new way of being.

Oh. Danni!

- Danni!

- Hey.

Hi. Um, do you want an umbrella?

- Uh, no. Good.

- I can get an umbrella for you.

Hood.

- Bye.

- Okay, oh wait!

Um, do you wanna

have dinner one night?

I'm a pretty good cook.

Well, I'm a lousy cook,

but a great eater.

So that should work

out really well.

Um, Friday?

- Sure. I'll see you then.

- See you then!

Something in your eyes

gives me butterflies

now my heart's beating

like a child, again

There's something

in your voice

so it's giving me

absolutely no choice

I haven't had this feeling

since I can't remember when

I gotta find the

door, catch a plane

I've been in love before

and I don't want

to get on the wrong train

'Cause I, I-ya-ya-yi

This is not a date, Evie!

I gotta leave today, yeah

before I fall back, before I

fall back in love again

Come in.

- Hi.

- Hi.

For you, from my garden.

If you give it time and love,

it'll double in size.

I have a bit of a black thumb

when it comes to plants,

but I will do my best.

Can I get you a glass

of wine or a beer?

Beer sounds good.

Okay.

Mmmmm.

So where did you

learn how to cook?

Um, my mother actually.

- Thank you.

- Uh, she had this

innate ability to

combine ingredients.

It was amazing.

I never saw her use a recipe.

Not once.

She was young,

I think a year older

than my mother.

Like sixty-four?

Sixty-five.

Uh, she had early

onset Alzheimer's, but

I knew that. I'm sorry.

You knew that?

Um

What, was it, in my eyes?

No, and I-I'm sorry.

Because I didn't mean to,

but I overheard you

talking with your

friend the other day.

- Oh.

- Yeah.

That must have been tough.

Alzheimer's is an

awful way to go.

I mean,

she didn't really die from that.

They think she confused

the basement door

for the bathroom door,

and she fell down some

stairs and hit her head.

Ended up in a coma

with irreparable brain damage.

So, uh

Ooph. Sorry, Eve.

Yeah. Thanks.

You know,

this might sound weird,

but in a way it was

kind of a blessing.

A quick death.

You know, my mother

was a scientist.

She was

so smart.

She was, I mean,

the smartest person I ever knew.

An-and then she just

started forgetting simple words

or-and losing the names

of bugs that she loved forever.

Uh, putting things

back in weird places,

or not remembering

where she put something at all.

And now you're losing things,

and you're thinking that...

- Right, well

- Eve I'm...

You know, I don't

know about you,

but I'm hungry.

So, um, do you mind if

I ask you a question?

Do you know why my grandparents

took my mother away from here?

I mean, I know

that something happened,

but mom always kept

her memories close.

She said she would always tell

me everything when we came,

that I wouldn't understand

'til I was here to

actually experience

this.

But then...

Since being here without her,

I feel like I know her

even less than before.

I...

You know, I-I'm not sure

you knowing the reason's

gonna make you feel any better.

If anything, it's gonna,

it's gonna raise more questions.

Just please, tell me.

Your grandparents moved

when they found out that...

sh*t.

I was hoping I'd

have a little bit more time

to get to know you before

Well.

Uh.

We are a family of witches.

And when your

grandparents found out,

they thought we were

devil worshipers, which is

ridiculous, but...

Okay.

Okay, alright, so

are you a good

witch or a bad witch?

Um.

A green witch, actually.

Mmm! Mmm.

Okay, so you're not,

you're not kidding.

No. And technically

I'm a hereditary witch,

so I get my

knowledge from my mom

and her mom before that,

as far back as I can trace.

So does that mean

that my mother was

one?

Well, my mom said that Mary knew

and accepted that

magic was real,

but that she didn't

practice herself.

Huh.

Eve is nothing scary.

Hmm? Mmm.

No, really. It's just

a way of being, like,

for me,

it's about my relationship

with nature and her power.

It's...

It's where I draw

my energy from.

Okay. Ahem.

Okay. You are, um, surprised.

Don't know what to think,

except maybe that I'm

some sort of nutcase, but

the truth is,

there's a lot of us.

We just don't talk about it.

I mean, when my sister

and I were kids,

it wasn't something

that you could say out loud

or there would've been

a price to pay, and

- even now

- Wait, I didn't know

that you had a sister.

Mm-hmm.

Nina.

She died when she was twelve.

Spell gone wrong.

She died.

Mm-hmm.

From a bad spell.

Mm-hmm.

Wow.

Yep.

Now I freaked you out.

Just a little bit.

Ahem.

I'm full.

- Um

- Yeah, it's late.

Yeah. Yeah.

Right.

No, no. Leave it. Leave it.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah. I-I got it.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

Uh.

Well, uh

that, that was really good.

And I was very impressed

with the meatless meatballs.

Especially since the cook

is a carnivore.

I was a little bit

outta my comfort zone, but, uh

So, uh,

we good with the witchy thing?

Yeah. Yeah!

I mean, if my mom

could be good with it,

then I can be good with it.

That's good.

That's good.

Um, well, thanks

for coming over.

- Goodnight.

- Night.

Okay.

- Goodnight.

- Just a

- gonna use my

- It's dark.

It's weird.

No weirder than that guy I dated

who was turned on

by my dirty socks.

Not the same thing.

Well, it explains a

lot about your mom.

My mother was not a witch.

Danny said so.

Maybe not, but

she knew things

before they happened,

and she believed that

magic was everywhere.

She didn't mean it literally.

Maybe she did.

I should end it

before it starts.

Shouldn't I? I should.

Look, you wanted to get

to know your mom better.

Maybe this is how you can,

by understanding

this side of her.

And no, I am not saying

that she was a witch.

I mean, what does

that even mean? But

I don't know if I

wanna know anymore.

I mean, she's not here

to explain herself.

Evie, you haven't taken a chance

on anything in years.

And looking deeper is risky.

But your mom wanted

you to go there.

She believed it could

change your life.

She didn't say how or why

or who!

So snap out of it.

So this-this Danni is

a little different.

Different is good.

Let her in and see

what's there to see.

- I don't know.

- Least wait until I get there,

- because I'm dying of

curiosity. - Wait, you're

coming?

Oh! Oh my God!

- I'm so happy.

- Me too!

Now you have to find

a lake with a rock

so we can reprise

our skinny dipping moment

- in honor of your mom.

- Or not.

Come on!

Okay. Okay. Email me your dates

so I can put it in my otherwise

sadly empty calendar.

Similar to other full moons,

the Cold Moon gets its name

from Native American culture,

and it reflects changes

in the natural world.

It signifies a turning point.

So it's the coldest

and the darkest

time of year. But it also means

that from here,

things can only get brighter.

Hi. Um, can I help you?

- Yeah. Hi, I am Chief Plank.

- Ricky!

- I need to

- Rick!

Can't just show on my

property like this.

And you can't just

show up on Robby's, Danni.

I didn't.

That's you.

He's trying to take my home.

You carved up this tree.

- I gotta find a way

- It's my day off, Danni.

- To protect myself.

- Come on.

I'm here on my off day,

because my dad was

fond of your mom,

and he wants you to be okay.

He asked me to give you a

fair warning and I just did.

Fair warning? There's nothing

fair about what he's doing.

- Come on!

- Maybe, but trespassing

isn't the way. You get a lawyer

and you defend

yourself in court.

Against negligent supervision?

This is ridiculous.

I was just a kid

when it happened.

Like it or not, you

were Nina's legal guardian.

It doesn't matter

how old you were.

There's-there's gotta be a

statute of limitations, right?

It's been over twenty years

since Melissa got sick,

But only a year since she died.

She k*lled herself.

I shouldn't have to

defend myself from this.

Apparently, you do.

And it's gonna be for

the court to decide.

But I'd advise you to show up.

If you don't, then the court

will most definitely

come down on his side.

I don't make the

rules here, Danni.

I'm just letting you know them.

Trespassing is against the law.

And next time I won't be able

to stop Robby from

pressing charges.

Well, then I press charges, too.

Eve saw him on my property.

- Right Eve? Right?

- Right.

- All right. You know what?

- Enough. Enough.

I am so tired of both of you.

Geez. It's like fricking

high school again.

You stay off his and I'll

tell him to stay off yours.

God.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey. Lawsuit's not

gonna work, Robby.

Oh, you wanna bet?

Even if there's

a remote chance of you winning

you'll never get the

house. I'll sell it first.

You let me go.

Let me go.

I'll make sure nobody

ever buys this house.

People don't like houses

with deaths attached to them.

This is not gonna

bring your sister back.

Maybe not,

but it'll make me feel better.

Let me go.

Don't want any company

right now, Eve.

Just need some peace.

Are you sure?

I'm really good listener.

Yeah, I'm sure.

Tell me.

Come on.

My sister Nina, she had

some mean girls at school.

They knew that we were witches,

because my mom,

after what happened

with your mom,

refused to keep it a secret.

Doubled down.

No one was gonna make her hide

who she really was,

which was great for

her, but

Nina was just a kid.

And one day

she decided she was

gonna boil up a brew

to put a spell on these girls.

Only she used the

wrong ingredients,

and the wrong intention,

I'm guessing.

Toxic fumes were released,

she breathed them in,

and it k*lled her.

Robby's sister,

Melissa, came by to, uh, well

Her mom said to apologize.

But, uh, I don't know.

Maybe she did.

Well, she got a lung

full of those fumes

and developed focus issues,

memory problems.

Had to drop outta high school.

- That's not on you, Danni.

- No, no. It is.

- No.

- It is.

I should have been

there when she got home.

You know,

the thing is, we were taught

never to use magic for harm.

Only for positive changes.

But Nina was super hurt,

and she was young

and she wanted

something bad to happen.

I think she thought it

would be like "The Craft,"

you know, like the hair

would fall out or something.

Yeah, well, she was wrong.

And Melissa never

really recovered.

I was told the note they found

it said that she just couldn't

live like this anymore.

Who could blame her?

Ricky's right.

You need a lawyer.

I can make some calls 'n

find someone good in the area,

if you'd like.

I'd appreciate that.

Of course.

Well,

I'll leave you to

find that peace.

Well, if you don't mind,

I could do with some company.

Your company.

All yours.

Love this song.

She danced in my head

Me too.

So you actually do

spells and stuff?

I do.

Don't look so skeptical.

People in all religions

pray to their God,

and believe God

will answer their prayers.

A spell is just

another form of prayer.

The only difference is that

I'm an active participant

in manifesting the results.

"The magic claiming me

be harnessed this night."

"Within these borders

never see light."

Careful what

you're summoning.

- Why?!

- Just kidding.

words without

magic intent are just words.

So.

M'lady.

Thank you.

Gonna get a beer.

Meet you outside?

It's the same roller coaster

I'll never get off

Won't you move

a little closer

What'd you find?

It's a banded borer beetle.

It's beautiful.

I have never seen anyone

so drawn to bugs like you.

Yeah, well, my mother

was an entomologist.

She had a deep

appreciation for the bugs.

She used to drag me out to

the woods, point 'em out.

Tell me all about 'em.

And at the time I thought it

was a chore, but I guess

some of it sunk in.

Have you always made

them part of your work?

Well, I hadn't picked up a

camera in years 'til I got here.

But when I was really into it,

I was living in the East Village

imagining myself to

be a rebel.

To be honest,

I think I was just

running from my mother,

or from who I thought

my mother was.

Though now I don't

even know why.

It wasn't until after she died

that I started seeing them.

You know,

when I first got here,

you told me all the qualities

about a beetle that

make it spiritual.

Mm-hmm.

But I

think the magic of the

beetle is more practical.

For instance,

they feed off dead animals,

and fallen trees,

and then recycle

nutrients back into the soil.

That's pretty magical, isn't it?

A hundred percent.

Oh wow.

She doesn't belong here.

Someone must have illegally

brought larva into this state.

Poor thing. There's no food

source for her babies.

You really think

that's why she's here?

Why do you have this tattoo?

When they took my

mother off life support,

she kept breathing.

I-I didn't know this,

but apparently that

happens sometimes.

And well, obviously

I wasn't gonna leave her,

so I stayed and

held her hand.

Time went by and at

some point I dozed off.

And then I dreamt

that this

Luna moth landed on her chest

right above her heart.

So beautiful.

And when I woke up,

she was gone, so.

I don't know. I-I got it

'cause it just makes me

feel good to look at it.

Like she's still here with me.

She is.

Oh, sorry.

I never realized I was looking

'til I saw your face

Wait, wait. Okay, look up there.

Up there.

I never realized I was stung

I knew it! It's coming!

Rosie, you're such a

magical individual.

I'm so happy I know you.

And if you guys ever

want a third, I am around.

Feels like something's

gonna happen

Voila.

Oh my gosh.

- Like it?

- No.

I love it.

For the first time

in a long time

it doesn't feel wrong

- Alright, so

- Yes.

Shuff

- You gotta shuffle.

- What are you doing?

- Well, I'm shuffling.

- That is not Okay.

Give this to me.

- You know how to shuffle?

- Uh, I can shuffle.

I can shuffle. That is...

That is a thing that I can do.

Okay.

So.

Can you, I don't know, teach

me a spell or something.

I'm not saying that I actually

believe in any of this, but.

I would like to get

to know you better.

Or do I have to be

a witch to do that?

Well, all the power you

need, you already have.

Just a matter of accessing it.

So yes, I can show

you what I know and

you can teach me how

to cook something fancy

From the seed this sweet

basil plantling has sprouted.

Goddess of light

shine down on her.

Give her your rays

so she may grow.

Goddess of earth

You have to take this seriously.

I am taking it serious.

You want your basil

to grow, don't you?

- Yes.

- Yeah?

- Okay, fine.

- Close your eyes.

- Ugh.

- Close your eyes.

Take a deep breath.

Ahem.

Trust me.

Goddess of earth.

Give her your nutrients

so she may mature.

Goddess of water.

Let your gift give her strength.

Goddess of air.

Bless this sweet plantling

with the gift of carbon dioxide.

So she won't just

survive, but thrive.

Danni,

the woman who comes over

I ended it after our first date.

- Now my turn.

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- Mmm.

Aaah!

I never realized I was looking

'til I saw your face

I never realized I was stung

until I felt your grace

For the first time in

a long time, feels kinda nice

Kind of put your

fingers in a knuckle.

Uh huh.

And you can actually

leave the tip of the knife...

Are you even

paying attention?

Let's focus.

Can I trust you with this?

Yes. Yes, yes. Yes,

yes, yes, yes, yes.

Are you sure?

Yes. Yes, yes, yes.

You're so cute.

Yeah, for the first time

I think I'm getting

treated right

Think the house is trying

to tell us something.

Next time we go to my place.

- You okay?

- I'm sorry, Danni.

'cause it seems this man is

just out to be vindictive.

He is. But there

isn't a case, right?

His sister is dead.

Just that fact could sway a jury

to deliver an emotional verdict.

He could be awarded enough

force a sale of the property

to satisfy the judgment.

How can they do that?

This is my home.

Just my two cents.

If you agree to a settlement,

you might be left

with money to start over.

Just have to sell a

piece of the property,

not the whole estate.

He's not gonna settle.

Take some time to

think things over.

Call me when you

decide how to proceed.

Thank you so much

for coming over.

- We'll be in touch.

- Thank you.

It's gonna be okay.

- How?

- Just

It will.

I just Sorry, I

I just need a-a

moment by myself.

Yeah, of course. I'm here.

The ancient sun

comes to rise

somehow seems

to shed no light

Sparrows sing

familiar tunes

they don't sound

like they used to

'cause I'm close to losing

all that I've known

since these four walls

are my only home.

But there's nothing lost

that can't be found

with your eyes

on the horizon

and your feet on the ground

I just, I don't know

how I can help her.

Well, this is a radical idea,

but why don't you

buy the property?

Why would I do that?

Well, because if

you own it, Evie,

then there's nothing for

that Robby guy to go after.

You said he was keyed

in on the house.

So you buy it.

Now you own it.

When the smoke clears,

you sell it back.

Make five bucks off

it for appearance sake.

I could retire off that money.

You can already

retire on your money.

Why you keep working

for that Fred,

I have no idea.

Yeah. Yeah.

Look, if you're worried

about this at all,

we can figure

something else out.

I'm-I'm not worried.

I trust you and I'm

grateful. Truly.

I just hope it's gonna work.

It will.

Okay.

I-I, um, just gotta go to

the restroom real quick.

Uh. D-do you wanna

put these away?

- Uh

- An-and, um,

I'll meet you right

back here in three minutes.

Uh - Yeah?

Okay. Right now?

- Um

- Two minutes.

Okay. Make it,

make it one minute.

'cause I don't wanna

wait that long.

- She's taking our house.

- What?

And you're letting her.

- Stop it right now. - You're

too young to understand.

She's not taking,

she's saving it.

I know what I'm doing.

Ugh!

Back to your room.

Did you just tell me

to go back to my room?

Oooh. I just got the chills.

Oh, yeah? I have

that effect on women.

- Oh?

- Oh, yeah. It's my witchy ways.

You wanna see where else

I can get you chills?

Angel's tongue

is found again

I am warm

I am warm here

with smoke

and honey

I am warm

here

Maybe I have a little

magic of my own.

- Hello?

- Eve?

Danni, I'm in here.

- You okay?

- The door just slammed on me.

I couldn't get out.

I-I-I think your

vegetables are burned.

Oh, no!

Nina!

Nina, stop it.

What is going on?

My sister. It's uh

It's complicated.

I'm listening.

- Mom was amazing.

- I mean, she really was.

But she loved her men

and-and her parties and

just wasn't around very much.

And then she died and

it was just Nina and me.

And then-then she died, and

After she begged me to stay

and I didn't want her to leave.

So I bound her to me.

Well, more specifically

to the house.

And ever since I've

never really been away.

So.

All those classic things that

you see in horror films,

the electrical issues,

the slamming doors.

Oh my God.

All of those misplaced things.

She didn't mean any harm.

She was just amusing herself.

Amusing?

God damn you.

I thought I was

losing my memory.

Why?

Why didn't you tell me?

Would you have

believed me if I had?

Hey, remember when I told

you I was a witch?

Guess what? There's more.

There's a ghost in the house.

Friendly. Don't worry about it.

Come on.

You would've thought me

crazier than you already do.

You know,

how scared I am

of ending up like my mother.

You could've at least tried.

You would've left.

Ugh, just go.

I just wanna be alone.

Well, I guess even if

you do, I won't be.

- No, no. She won't bother you.

- I promise.

She'll stay in her

room. I'll tell her to.

The locked room?

She's the personal item

you keep stored in there?

Oh, wow.

We shared it as kids.

She's happy there.

She's harmless. I promise.

Harmless?

She tried burning me

with a frying pan.

- No, she did not.

- Yes!

- No, no, no!

- Yes, she did!

She just scared you a little.

This is all she can do.

Knock things over.

If anything else,

her energy would

need a-a-a vessel.

What are you doing?

- Where are you going?

- Outside.

I don't wanna spend another

minute in this house.

You reached

Mary, leave a message.

This mailbox is full.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

Och. I need you.

Ugh.

What did you get me into, Mama?

Hello, I'm Aurora.

Witch of the Web.

If you found your

way to this video,

it's probably

because you suspect

that you have a

ghost in your house.

There are actually

physical symptoms

that can point to the fact

that you do have a

ghost living with you.

Here are a few of them.

A dryness of the mouth

or throat or lips,

migraines, back aches,

A weariness.

This-this-this feeling that your

this energy has just been

sapped from your body.

And this is key.

Your vital energy,

your prana shakti,

that's the body's life force.

And the ghost draws

on it for strength.

So it's important to remember,

it doesn't matter if the ghost

is good or bad.

The ghost is there

'cause it needs your

energy for strength.

- Eve?

- Mm-mm.

Go away.

Come inside.

No. No.

Absolutely not.

Your sister is sucking me dry.

No, she's not.

Yes, she is.

Not on purpose.

It's just that ghosts they

come with side effects.

It-it doesn't matter if it's

a good ghost or a bad ghost.

Okay. I know that, now.

Thanks to Aurora here.

No thanks to you.

She's scared and she

doesn't know how to trust.

In practical terms,

she's really just a-a

hurt, insecure, 12-year-old.

You can't stay out

here all night.

Just leave me alone.

Aw.

Oh, sh*t!

sh*t, sh*t, sh*t,

sh*t, sh*t, sh*t.

Ah. Ow!

Can we talk?

I

I have to go pick up

Penny from the airport.

- Please.

- Can't do this right now.

Jesus. I have to go.

You have lost your mind.

I'm just

telling you what happened.

So, you believe

you're living with

a 12-year-old ghost?

Well, I mean,

yes, I have all the signs.

And if you heard

Danni explaining,

she's hard not to believe.

Wow.

Oh my God, girl.

Holy sh*t.

You don't have to

be so dramatic.

I don't know what else to say.

I mean, holy sh*t.

She is crazy.

She's not crazy.

You said different was good.

Yeah. Different.

Not Looney Tunes.

The last thing you need

to do is fall in love

with another crazy person.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Ow. My back is k*lling me.

See, that's another

one of the signs.

Maybe it's because you slept

outside on the couch, Thelma.

Okay. Just wait

outside on the patio.

Don't go in. I'm gonna

get Danni, and see

what she wants to do about this

situation.

Okay.

Fly seven hours to

wait on a patio.

Okay.

Uhhh.

Well this is

cute, I guess.

AH!

Oh!

Really?

Okay.

Oh.

I come in peace.

- You must be Penny.

- AH!

Jesus H. Christ.

I take it Eve told

you about my sister.

She may have

mentioned something.

- I'm just making some tea.

- Would you like some?

You got anything stronger?

- Where's Eve?

- Uh, she went to go look...

- Danni!

- There you are.

Did you think I

wouldn't find out?

Ooh. Damn it. Nina!

- I didn't do that.

- Are you all right?

I know you didn't.

Okay. She obviously

doesn't want me in that house.

No, no, no. It's

not you, it's him.

- What do you want?

- I have friends that work

at the county recorder's office,

so I know what you're up to,

and it won't work.

Oh, but it will, Robby.

Eve is buying it all,

and the paperwork

will be squared away

before you can do anything.

So you know what?

Sue me if you must,

but you're not

getting the house.

b*tch!

You just assaulted me.

I-I-I didn't as*ault you.

You assaulted me.

And I have two

witnesses.

- Right?

- Right, right.

I don't know what just happened,

but, uh, it wasn't any of us.

Well, I'm gonna report

this to the police.

And we'll see who assaulted who.

You f*cking witches.

Jesus Christ.

So what did just happen?

Yeah. What did?

You said that she

wasn't dangerous.

That seemed pretty

dangerous to me.

Were you lying?

- No, I wasn't lying.

- Then?

It's not her.

And I've been trying

to learn to control my temper,

but he pushed me

with his ignorance.

Oh.

Wow.

No, I don't like going there.

But people aren't kind

when they're scared

and they get scared of anything,

and anyone that they

don't understand.

How do you expect anyone

to understand you

if you're constantly

hiding who you really are?

I hate to interrupt,

but what are we gonna do now?

'cause I'm not staying here.

I'm-I'm gonna move both of you

into the cottage for tonight

and then, um,

tomorrow if you wanna leave.

Right. Right.

Okay.

This way.

Oh gosh.

Okay.

So.

What are you gonna do about

this witchy relationship

that you're entangled in?

I really have no idea.

Ugh.

I'm so sorry I

dragged you into this.

This was meant to be

a vacation for you.

Hawaii is a vacation.

I'm here to visit my

nearest and dearest.

I got you.

I got you.

I got you.

Okay.

Night Louise.

Night Thelma.

Spirits of the air,

fire, earth and water,

I call on you. Mother

Earth, Father Sky,

I call on you.

My life as I know it is at risk.

Someone wants to do harm

for harm that has been done.

So I ask for your guidance.

How can I protect myself,

and space for all to heal?

The hermit.

This tells me

that you're seeking answers.

You might be facing

the realization.

that you're

at the end of a major.

aspect of your life.

Use your

inner strength.

during this

transitional time.

Feel

the fear, and just.

walk right through.

Okay? What are we doing here?

Why did you wanna meet here?

I needed to be out

of Nina's awareness

for what I need

to share with you.

What's that?

It's time to let Nina go.

For her, and for me,

and for us.

If there is still

a chance for us.

And it has to happen

before Robby comes back.

And

I need your help.

Both of you.

Look. Why don't you just

go to the spa or something.

This is so not your fight.

But it's your fight.

And we've always had

each other's back.

Alright.

What can we do to help?

Will you get your basil,

and fill a jug with rain water?

I have to change first.

- Yes. Yes, you should.

- It's too much.

So, what is that?

Black salt in a circle

acts as protection.

Nina's gonna be hurt, scared.

Dangerous?

Just make sure

you stay within the circle,

and that the circle

stays intact.

Let this white candle fill

us with purity of thought,

and surround us with

divine intervention.

Red for passion of conviction.

The courage to see it through.

Blue, to imbue us with calmness

and open up the wisdom

to the universe.

Nina, I release you.

Nina,

you are released.

From the ties that bind you

to this earth and to me.

From the ties that bind you

to this earth and to me.

Danni.

Chief Plank. Open up.

I need to talk to you.

- Give me a minute, Ricky.

- I cut your cord.

Your cord is cut.

You're set free!

Nina,

you're set free.

Come on, let's go. Let's run!

Nina?

Nina.

Oh!

Blah!

Go. Let's go.

Let's go, let's go.

sh*t.

Robby. Come on.

sh*t.

Danni.

Danni, do something.

Go back to the

protection circle.

Keep repeating,

"We release you."

- No matter what, don't stop.

- Okay.

Hey lady, get off

him, or I'll sh**t.

No Rick, no. It won't stop Nina.

Penny's just a vessel.

I can't help it. Danni.

She's k*lling him.

Nina. Nina, look at me.

Nina, I released you

from the ties that bind you

to this earth and to me.

- You are released.

- Nina, you are released.

Nina, you, you are released.

Nina, you are released.

You are released.

It's okay. It's

okay. I'm here, baby.

Danni!

It's time for you to go now.

I need to stay with you.

No, I'm gonna be okay.

Mom's waiting for you.

I love you.

I love you too.

Penny. Penny!

Oh my God. You okay?

Ugh, what the hell happened?

Nina possessed you

for a brief moment.

Ewwww!

Sore all over. Is she gone?

Yes.

Well, God damn,

I'm not sure who I'm

supposed to arrest here.

Or how I'm gonna

explain any of this.

Let's just go.

This is not over.

Robby. Robby, come

on, come on. Come on.

20 years ago, two little girls

hurt each other, and

it ended in tragedy.

This isn't about us.

Don't you think m*rder is

a little more serious

than defacing a backpack, Danni?

She wasn't trying to m*rder her.

It was Nina who ended up

dead for Christ's sake.

You know, it started with

Melissa and her little posse.

They were bullying Nina

mercilessly for months.

No, no.

I

If you must blame me,

I'll accept whatever

punishment you think you need.

I just want this anger to end.

Aren't you tired?

What's it gonna be, Robby?

I don't rightly want

to arrest this lady,

'cause I'm pretty sure she's

not guilty of anything

except being in the wrong

place at the wrong time.

I'll-I'll drop the case,

but I won't forgive you.

f*cking witches!

It's somethin'?

It's something.

Can we talk now?

I'm fine. Go.

Okay.

I was very, very wrong.

Not to at least try and

tell you about Nina.

It's been her and me

alone for so long.

Relationships have

always been superficial,

never truthful.

I learned the hard way,

being honest about who I am

can get me hurt.

The truth is,

I love you Evie.

And I know we barely

know each other, and

It's a totally cliche.

l*sbian falling in

love in a heartbeat.

When does that

ever happen? Right?

But I did

fall in love in a heartbeat.

To a heartbeat.

Your heartbeat.

Danni.

Total honesty from

now on. Promise me.

Promise. Promise.

All things

turn into dust

melting

back into love

follow, I'll follow you into

follow, I'll follow you

fall with me

fall into me

we've been waiting

breathe with me

breathe into me

know me as I know you

fall with me

fall into me

fall into me and breathe

So how did Fred

take the news that you quit.

For real this time?

Well, he threatened to sue.

I countered with love.

He didn't know what

to do with that.

Said, I'm welcome back

whenever I "come to my senses."

Wow. It's gorgeous.

Ah. It sure is.

Oof.

There must be an easier way.

Oh, where's your

sense of adventure?

I think I left it

back in New York.

Where are we going?

I actually do not know, but

we'll find out.

So how long are

you gonna go for?

Oh, two, three months maybe.

Oh.

Looks like we're at

the end of the road.

Not quite.

Let's not get caught.

No. It is freezing, Thelma.

So? Let's keep going.

I think you lost your mind.

Come on. In honor

my mom, Louise.

Oh Lord.

I have a feeling I'm

gonna regret this.

Come on. It'll be fun.

No. Oh, Thelma.

I invite all the positive

energy, love, greatest good

into my energetic space.

Now,

may I call in the person

that is in

perfect alignment

to tend to this space.

Are you sure you

can handle this?

I haven't been this

alive in years.

I'm beyond sure.

Plus, you know, I want

a little bit of that

that magic for myself.

- Okay.

- Go have fun.

I love you, Louise.

Love you, Thelma.

Don't do anything I wouldn't do.

How do you feel?

Different.

Different is good.

You make me feel

like dancing

under the light of the moon

you make me

believe in miracles

and I can feel

the earth move

so I'm gonna go wherever you

take me into the

great unknown

I'm not afraid of

the darkness anymore

you light the way with magic

and I know you can tell

you got me

hypnotized, and baby

I'm under your

sweet, sweet spell

I'm under your sweet spell

you got me in another time

and another space

where everything glows

the mystery it beckons me

to hold you close.

I never believed in destiny

but I think I've been swayed

'cause every constellation

points to you, leads the way

you light the way with magic

and I know you can tell

you got me

hypnotized, and baby

I'm under your

sweet, sweet spell
