Erin wanted to give her daughter, Charlie, a normal childhood, but Charlie isn't a normal child. Charlie and her mother are both witches. After escaping government captors, Erin gave birth on the run and spent many years moving Charlie from town to town to avoid being locked up and experimented on. When Charlie started high school, Erin made a promise they wouldn't move again until she had graduated. Now, they've made it to senior year without issue but when a new kid shows up at school, Charlie notices something strange about him. In order to uncover the truth, she begins acting out of character and going behind her mother's back to handle everything on her own. Charlie's reckless behavior opens the door for trouble to quickly find them once again. With Erin as her teacher, Charlie still has a lot to learn before she is ready to face the unknown evils that have been after them for all these years.

Witches In Suburbia

	Normally, I would try to sneak out a side window or through the attic but when the house is fully surrounded, I need to take the fastest route out. Out on the street, I leave the haze over myself as I quickly make my way to the old cinema-turned bakery. 


A customer opens the door to leave and I pop in before the door shuts. Weaving my way around the customers, I make it back behind the counter and through the kitchen. Past the kitchen is a hallway that dead ends but there is an old spiral staircase. Right now, it is just being used as a bookcase for holding boxes of miscellaneous items from the bakery but I know that it leads up to where the little movie projector room is.
