Forced to tolerate the intrusion of California producers, grip guys, and cameras, toting a ton of childhood trauma, Ash's brother and cousins have plenty of animosity for each other, along with a strong aversion to the paranormal shenanigans of their childhood home. But when Truluck's funeral goes pear-shaped and the cousins are cut out of his will, Hollywood producers offer the deal of a lifetime: they'll turn the Trenholms into witchy Kardashians with a Southern drawl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf the cousins walk away, they'll lose everything.
