This is a hilarious romp following daughters of rival witch families Katy and Delpha as they come to terms with their magic, their families, and each other.

Cattywampus is such a wonderful, voicey, new release by Ash Van Otterloo. Set in the fictional southern small town of Howlers Hollow, it features rival witch families, werewolves, zombies, a pet Racoon, and a runaway outhouse. The town is constructed with such care you'll swear it was a place you could go visit tomorrow. But for me, the magic really shines when the eager and anxious Katybird, the contrary and defensive Delpha, and the ever-cheerful Tyler are forced to work together to set their town back to normal. Their opposing personalities, the warring zombified family members, and their untamed magic…
From Kerelyn's list on fantastically fun ensemble casts.
