About Halloweentown/ Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge
In a place called Halloweentown, good and evil look very different than one might expect. Thanks to a visit from Grandmother Aggie (Debbie Reynolds), Marnie (Kimberly J. Brown) and her family's tradition of ignoring the Halloween holiday are about to change in the extreme. It seems that Marnie's mother Gwen (Judith Hoag) has been hiding a big secret from her three children--all of them possess supernatural powers. Now that it's Marnie's thirteenth birthday, she must begin her training as a witch or lose her powers forever. While Gwen wants nothing more than to see her children grow up as "normal" humans, Grandmother Aggie and Marnie have other ideas. A brewing crisis between good and evil in the alternate world Halloweentown soon pulls the entire family through a portal and into an intense battle against ghouls, goblins and the warlock Kalabar (Robin Thomas). Halloweentown II takes place two years after Halloweentown and finds Kalabar's son bent on revenge. Marnie has matured as a witch, but her powers are pushed to the limit in a desperate effort to triumph over an evil curse in order to save Halloweentown, her family and the human world. This is good Disney Halloween fun with nice costuming and special effects, a wholesome message about the power of family, cooperation and perseverance, and ghouls that, though creepy looking, aren't likely to inspire nightmares in younger family members.

I just ordered both Halloweentown 1&2 and Halloweentown High. I was just looking to see what was on tv this week and saw that all four Halloweentowns are airing over a 4 night period on Disney. Even though I am an adult I enjoy watching the first 3 every year and decided to check out Amazon for them. Glad I did.
They are good family entertainment which is very difficult to find today. Not scary for the kids and really enjoyable. I was not as stuck on the fourth one as much as the first three. I will watch that again first and then decide if I am going to order it.
