Funny, warm and elaborately portrayed world of witches and sorceresses, where everything is in reverse: cleaning means getting dirty, soup with arsenic or turpentine with foam is a delicacy, and the greatest joy is doing evil (although this evil is definitely the "softcore" version and means at most making jokes, tricks and pranks). The encounter of the rules of the witch's world with the world of people produces a funny, but also educational effect. These two worlds turn out to be very close to each other as a result, which brings a lot of joy to underage witches and children alike.

The Witch Eyesoress has a great deal to worry about - her two daughters have too good hearts and don't seem enthusiastic about performing spells. At the Witches' School they get only mediocre grades. Together with her friend, Monstress, Eyesoress comes up with an idea to " re-educate" the children. She decides to send them to an ordinary human school, where, as she tells them, they will have to learn only good and useful things. Using a magic wand, Atrocia and Scoundrella are sent to the human world. The appearance of strange girls makes a big stir in the classroom. At the same time, the children are nervous about the upcoming math lesson, for which they had to learn the multiplication table. The young witches are very keen to help, but their clumsy spells cause more confusion than any good. As a result of awkward spells, the register disappears from the teacher's desk and the children are threatened with serious penalties, such as cancellation of the expected trip. Atrocia and Scoundrella have no choice but to turn to their mother, the perfect witch... which leads to an obvious happy ending.
