Synopsis

It’s no wonder Emily can’t sleep.

She obsesses about awkward interactions in the past, she tries to predict the disasters of the future – and then, of course, there’s three immortal witches sabotaging her drama club production of Macbeth so they can escape the mortal realm.

But when the witches send strange visions to turn Emily and her new classmates against each other, no one can predict what happens next.

Before the charm‘s wound up, all will face their fears in this tale of loyalty, anxiety, Skittles and doom.
