It's almost Samhain! The spooky season is the perfect time to cuddle up with a good witchy movie. Laylla and Chelle talk about some of our favorite Halloween classics to uncover the real magic behind the Hollywood spells. With blankets wrapped tight, hot tea in hand, and snacks aplenty, our witches have put in the *tough* work of rewatching beloved witchy flicks to answer the burning question: Is there real magic in these movies, or is Hollywood just spinning broomsticks for cash? And is there any truth to one of these movies being cursed by a real life witch?

From the sisterhood of "Practical Magic" to the teenage angst in "The Craft," and the delightful camp of "Hocus Pocus," these films have become staples of the spooky season; but just how much of the spellwork is authentic? And hold on to your broomsticks because there's a new witch in town—Disney's "Agatha All Along." Is this modern addition to the witchy canon casting actual spells or just riding the wave of witchy trends?

In this episode, Laylla and Chelle uncover some true witchcraft secrets hidden in their favorite spooky films. From creepy sounding code names for herbs to real-life witchy practices making an appearance on the big screen. You might be surprised to learn just how many genuine magical elements snuck their way into these films, and that even some of the dialogue contains actual spells!

If you've ever wondered whether Hollywood's witches are stirring up more than just special effects, tune in as our real witches break down the enchantments, the truths, and the tricks behind these Halloween favorites. It's a cauldron of movie magic, myth, and a sprinkle of mayhem as we celebrate the witchiest time of the year!

Expect some laughs, a few "ah-ha" moments, and possibly a strong urge to rewatch these classics with fresh eyes and a new appreciation for the witchcraft hidden beneath the cinematic spells!
