For two sisters from a family of witches, falling in love is the trickiest spell of all.

Sally and Gillian Owens, born into a magical family, have mostly avoided witchcraft themselves. But when Gillian's vicious boyfriend, Jimmy Angelov, dies unexpectedly, the Owens sisters give themselves a crash course in hard magic. With policeman Gary Hallet growing suspicious, the girls struggle to resurrect Angelov -- and unwittingly inject his corpse with an evil spirit that threatens to end their family line.

These two, seemingly ageless, ladies are widely believed to be witches by their local community but neither "Frances" (Stockard Channing) nor "Jet" (Dianne Wiest) really care very much.
