Why we’d put this one on
Catherine Bell's Cassie helps a famous author realize her fictional Tarynsville stories are secretly built on the real history of Grey House, all during a massive Halloween book launch. Weirdness 9, and the town antics are a hoot: a mayor ordering the police chief to sledgehammer a wall for a promotion, and a woman dating three men who all booked the same B&B on the same night. At 7.8 it is the highest-rated Good Witch entry in this batch. Bailee Madison's Grace recovers from an accident with help from James Denton's Dr. Sam. Cozy, warm, and very Middleton.
