It’s 1984 and Ruby Lee Collins, a 13-year-old girl from the mountains of Appalachian Kentucky, has awakened a 100-year-old curse placed on her town of Mary Luck by the witch Baby Annie. Through a seance with her best friends she accidently opens a door to the other side that allows the witch to wreak havoc on the town once again. With the help of five storytellers, who the townfolk call The Yarn Spinners, her friends and Mary Luck’s founding families Ruby Lee will face down the witch and balance the scales between good and evil.
