Summaries

Sabrina is a normal teenager, except for one thing - she's a witch. Guided by her aunts, who come from a long line of witches, and Salem, a mischievous warlock doing penance as a cat, Sabrina continually struggles to harness her powers.

Sabrina Spellman (Melissa Joan Hart), a perfectly normal sixteen-year-old, is informed by her aunts, Hilda (Caroline Rhea) and Zelda (Beth Broderick), that she (and they, and her whole family on her father's side) are witches. She lives with them in Massachusetts while preparing to receive her witch's license. Along the way, she gets into many scrapes while figuring out how certain spells work. She also has to keep the secret from her boyfriend, Harvey (Nate Richert), friends Jenny (Michelle Beaudoin), and later Valerie (Lindsay Sloane), stuck-up nemesis Libby (Jenna Leigh Green), and the ever-suspicious Principal Willard Kraft (Martin Mull).

In the television movie that introduced the beloved character to audiences around the world, we meet young Sabrina (Hart) as she is sent to live with her eccentric aunts and discovers that she is actually a witch. Like any other girl her age, Sabrina just wants to have fun and be normal, but being normal may prove to be impossible, especially when her daily chores involve finishing her homework, cleaning her room, and learning to fly.

A young female who is trying to live and build a good life for herself discovers that she is a witch. With the help of family and friends, she goes on countless adventures. Whenever she gets herself in any dilemmas, she uses her powers to find a solution.—RECB3
