"Magic is really very simple, all you have to do is want something, and then let yourself have it!"
Happy (belated) 25th anniversary to the Cromwells~

The Missing Character of the Halloweentown Films
Tumblr media
Something I never see mentioned when talking about Halloweentown is the one character who had more influence on these films' plots than anyone, outside Aggie, Gwen, Marnie, and the antagonists, but who we barely know anything about:
William Piper. The kids' father. The man Gwen left Halloweentown for.
We hear about this man a handful of times across four films. The most we know is:
He was human,
He met Gwen at a Halloween party and liked her witch "costume",
He died sometime before the first film (relatively recently, too, considering the age of the kids in the photo).
Being with him taught Gwen that nothing's worth anything if you can get it just by wishing.
And... that's it.
We don't know what he was like as a father or husband, we don't even know if Gwen ever told him about magic or how he felt about it (I assume she had to at some point when Marnie started having magical accidents as a kid, but maybe he was just that oblivious...).
Tumblr media
I mean, maybe it's better we don't know. Maybe it would just muddy up the film canon with unfortunate implications, which are already rampant, and take away precious plot time to look back at a character who is no longer in the picture.
After all, if he knew about magic, he also agreed to Gwen's plan to let Marnie and Sophie's magic wither on the vine. Which, even if he just went along with it just to make her happy, is not great. And if he didn't know, or if he found out only after the kids were born, that casts a huge shadow on Gwen's relationship with him.
But... still, I can't help but think about the unspoken influence this man must have had on Gwen and the kids that is never discussed in canon.
Tumblr media
The way Dylan is such a goody two shoes because he's trying to protect his mother's feelings in the wake of their dad's death. The way Gwen brings up wanting Marnie to be human, "like their father". The way Marnie brings up that Gwen met their dad on Halloween, which may be part of why Marnie's drawn to it and why she can't understand Gwen's fear of it. The way Aggie is baffled why Gwen stays in the mortal realm when William is gone (and Aggie must have met the man at some point, yet she treats his passing with little sensitivity. Aggie, I love you, but...). The fact that there Halloweentown Council brings up Marnie's "wretched human" father in Halloweentown High as the reason why Marnie is fighting so hard to prove humans have changed.
Tumblr media
The Piper kids are the bridge between two worlds. We hear a lot about their Cromwell heritage, but rarely do we talk about the Piper side of the equation, their attachment to the mortal world - yes, even Marnie's. Part of that is down to Gwen choosing to leave Halloweentown, but the other part is down to William and how much Gwen must have loved him to give up everything she knew.
And part of me wishes more thought had been spent on him. But another part thinks it's better left unsaid.

Halloweentown: Aggie Cromwell —Aesthetic
Tumblr media
Splendora Agatha Cromwell's Character & Personality
Aggie is a one-thousand-thirteen-year-old witch who resides in the city of Halloweentown. Although she doesn't mind humans, she does find them to be old-fashioned and dull. This is because Aggie has a hard time not using her magic in the human world. To her, magic makes life easier and fun; which she enjoys sharing with others. Aggie possesses great power as a Cromwell. She's a naturally powerful witch who's also quite wise. She knows much about history, magic, witches and the realm of Halloweentown. Finally, Aggie is a friend to all. She doesn't harm anyone. Thus, Aggie only uses her ancient, powerful magic when the situation demands it.

Lore drop: my name is Agatha! I drew some better-known Agathas one night for fun; here they all are!
Tumblr media
Agatha Cromwell, *Halloweentown* franchise
You know, when I told my mother my new name, she said it sounded like “the name of an ugly witch,” but the witch Agatha *my* generation knows best is played by DEBBIE REYNOLDS so I think I’ll be fine.
Tumblr media
Then there’s Agatha Christie, a dated and problematic fave, and definitely who I get asked the most if I am named after (I am not). *murder on the orient express* does have some extremely funny lines in it though (the book not the new movie).
Tumblr media
Agatha Moustafa neé [not revealed], *The Grand Budapest Hotel*
I love Saoirse Ronan and used to be obsessed with this movie, I should rewatch it.
Tumblr media
Some Agatha facts!
Image Text
FYI: Agatha is from the Greek for “goodness, nobility, integrity.” It was said by Plato to be one of the two qualities of a good citizen, along with the Greek for wisdom, which gave us my sister’s name, Sophia!
Here’s Agatha of Sicily, a Catholic saint best known for carrying her boobs around on a plate (for Martyr-y reasons)
A. Sicily says: “Don’t ask.”
And Agatha Barbara, independence and equality activist and former president of Malta!
A. Barbara says: “My green flag is that I was imprisoned by the British!”
Tumblr media
Lastly,
Marvel’s Agatha Harkness and Agatha Wellbelove from Rainbow Rowell’s *Simon Snow* series
Ok, I guess we are a pretty witchy cohort, but look how cute they are! No regrets. Witch pride!
Comment ur favorite Agathas and I can draw them for u sometime =)
