Un giovane orfano alla fine del 1967 va a vivere con la sua adorata nonna a Demopolis, una cittadina rurale dell'Alabama. Il ragazzo e sua nonna si imbattono in alcune streghe apparentemente glamour ma completamente diaboliche, così la nonna saggiamente decide di portare il nipote in una sfarzosa località balneare. Purtroppo arrivano esattamente nello stesso momento in cui la Strega Suprema ha riunito la sua congrega di fattucchiere di tutto il mondo - sotto copertura - per portare a termine i suoi piani malefici.
