This is a faithful adaptation of Roald Dahl’s classic story in which a young boy and his grandmother live in a world where child-hating societies of witches secretly exist in every country. The witches are ruled by the extremely vicious and powerful Grand High Witch who arrives in England to organize her plan to turn all of the children in England into mice.

The Witches are nothing like the ones who wear pointed hats and fly on broomsticks – they look very much like ordinary women, which helps their deception. A perfectly spooky October treat!
