Fans still can’t make heads or tails of what exactly to expect from the Agatha All Along series, but it’s slowly starting to look like there’s going to be a clear musical element to the show.
At the D23 Expo, we got to listen to The Ballad of the Witches’ Road which was also performed and sang by the cast members with Kathryn Hahn in the lead. Check this out:
Here are the lyrics to the song:
Marching ever forward neath the wooded shrine, I stray not from the path.
I hold death’s hand in mine. Primal night, give it sight…
Familiar by thy side. If sun be gone, we carry on. Spirit as our guide.
Down, down, down the road… Down the witches road…
Blood and tears and bone… Maiden, mother, crone.
The road is wild and wicked, winding through the wood.
Where all that’s wrong is right, and all that’s bad is good.
Through many miles of twisted trials, we wander high and low.
Take your fears, a door appears… The time has come to go.
Down, down, down the road… Down the witches road…
Follow me, my friend, to glory at the end.
Though the performance features most of the principal cast of Agatha All Along including Patti LuPone, Debra Jo Rupp, Joe Locke, Ali Ahn, and Sasheer Zamata; one missing cast member from the performance is Aubrey Plaza, who fans are expecting is the main villain of the series.
The story still hasn’t been completely spelled out, but it does look like Agatha and her Coven are going to be heading down the Witches’ Road to help her get out of the hex that Wanda trapped her in back in the first season of WandaVision.
It feels a lot like the plot for Wizard of Oz, but it also looks like the show is going to be parodying several kinds of horror genres with references to shows like Mare of Easttown and Evil Dead.
The first two episodes of Agatha All Along premieres on Disney+ on Sept. 18.
