The Secret Circle- Heather

"Wherever there are witches, there is evil"


In the nicest way possible I can tell you I cant seem to find myself as a fan of this show. There was tons of suspense, interesting use of magic, a depth to the story line and then horrible acting. Everything that was going on seemed to be happening so oddly and nothing really flowed. It almost felt like because they could do whatever they wanted to create a story they did, no rules just whatever could be thrown in was. 

Cassie and Faye went behind the circles back to perform magic. They wanted to revive Heather, Cassie's mothers best friend. Something horrible happened to her after the fire that killed all of their parents, and Cassie wanted answers. The result wasn't so pretty. Heather had not moved for 16 years. After Diana didn't let Cassie and Adam revive her, Faye (only helping Cassie because she wanted to get her hands on the family spell book) joined in on the mission. Thinking the spell didn't work the two leave back home where a possessed Heather shows up. This scene actually terrified me and as that door creaked open by itself and Cassie was stiff with fear, I was curling up under my blanket like I was watching a bad horror movie.

 Turns out Cassie's mom did not do this to her friends but put her in a state of trance to help with the pains she was suffering. Demons had possessed her body. After she tries killing Faye and Cassie, she gets hit by a car (mean girls style) and dies leaving the evil demon to escape her body (a nasty worm) and sneak into Nick's backpack. In the end the worm crawls into Melissa's ear and its safe to say there will be some exorcisms performed on her in the episode to come. 

Besides that there are little stories that apply to the circle as teenagers. Melissa is in love with bad boy Nick but she is manipulated by Faye and so she automatically assumes he is going to cheat on her and that he will never change. Cassie and Adam are falling for each other fast and Diana is trying to stop it as best she can without coming off psychotic. Little does she know after dropping her off Adam goes to make sure Cassie is doing all right. Innocent fun can always turn bad....
I wonder where all the adults were today while demons were being unleashed in their living rooms? And what about that guy that was interested in Cassie? How is the new family spell book going to come into play? I must give props where they are due for creating suspense, action, and some comic Faye relief.
