But as Agatha investigates a womans death, it becomes all too clear there is something more at play.
A new image demonstrates just how spooky this show is likely to get.

He said:
“There are some great Exorcist references in there.
Rosemarys Baby was one of them.
Also, The Goonies that was the one for me.

So, that one for me was the big one.”
These references are a welcome addition and bring back memories of the series' predecessor.
In addition to Lockes preference forThe Goonies, co-starAubrey Plazaalso indicated her favorite aspect of the series.
A spell-bound Agatha Harkness regains freedom thanks to a teen’s help. Intrigued by his plea, she embarks on the Witches' Road trials to reclaim her powers and discover the teen’s motivations.
She told Total Film the show taps into 90s cult favorite,The Craft.
But the film also famously takes a hard turn into dark depictions of witchcraft.
While magic can result in a campy viewing experience,Agatha All Alongseems to be chasing the same tone.
Veering hard into horror is what this Marvel series needs to feel fresh.
