[edit] Synopsis

Don Farmer and his wife Christine are in deep debt and may have to sell their house. They have two twin daughters, Kelly and Lynn. But in order to save their house, they must take a loan from Christine's cruel Aunt Agatha. Aunt Agatha used to have a twin sister, Sophia, but when they were children, Agatha found a magical moonstone used by a witch 200 years before. With that, she bewitched Sophia into an eerie netherworld within a mirror and after seven years on Halloween, the spell would be permanent. But there is a catch. If a pair of twins says the magic words, they can free Sophia from the mirror. With the help of a midget clown named Oscar, a poor man named Mr. N, and a toy magic wand that has unexplained genuine magical powers, Kelly and Lynn go on a quest to free their kind Aunt Sophia.
