Come as You Are to Watch 'Witches of East End'

Move over "Dance Moms," Lifetime is adding some real witches this October! Inspired by Melissa de la Cruz’s New York Times best-selling novel, "Witches of East End" follows the mysterious Beauchamp family. Supernatural trouble brews, forcing Joanna (Julia Ormond) to reveal that her daughters are immortal witches. Now, Ingrid (Rachel Boston) and Freya (Jenna Dewan Tatum) must master their untapped powers to battle an ancient foe who wants to extinguish their family line.

Which Witch: “Witches of East End” vs. “American Horror Story: Coven”
The newest installment of “American Horror Story” will also feature a young woman who has to embrace her witchy legacy to fight extinction. With a cast of powerhouses--including Kathy Bates, Jessica Lange, Angela Basset, and Patti LuPone—“AHS: Coven” will explore feminist and historical themes. Based on the promos, “Witches of East End” looks supernatural and soapy, while “AHS: Coven” seems more intense and creepy.

“Witches of East End” premieres Sunday, Oct. 6 at 10 p.m. on Lifetime.
