One of the Hallmark Channel’s longest-running shows, The Good Witch, returns on May 16, 2021. Focused on the lives of the residents of Middleton, The Good Witch centers around the magic and relationships of Cassie Nightingale, the owner of the local B&B Grey House. Although the town overcame a curse last season, Cassie (Catherine Bell) and her equally intuitive cousins Abigail (Sarah Power) and Joy (Katherine Barrell) discovered a new mystery.

The Good Witch’s season 6 ended with Blairsville Mayor Donovan Davenport (Marc Bendavid) proposing to Abigail with the ring found when they finally broke their families’ centuries-old curse.  Cassie, Abigail, and Joy were puzzled when they each received a velvet bag of soil.
