Contemporary musical Fast-paced, high-energy comedic ensemble number with driving folk-pop instrumentation — lively fiddle, acoustic guitar, hand percussion, and stomps — set at an urgent mid-to-fast tempo that feels slightly breathless and escalating; vocals should feature rapid-fire patter from the lead with sharp, witty interjections from the town women, building into bold, rhythmic unison choruses that feel chaotic but empowering; dynamics rise as humor gives way to real stakes, layering harmonies and percussive accents to create the sense of a makeshift ritual forming in real time; tone is frantic yet determined, blending sisterly panic with scrappy courage, culminating in a strong, unified final line that shifts the energy from comedy into collective power.

Lyrics
VERSE 1 – SALLY (panicked, focused)
Okay, no time for details,
He’s back from the grave,
He’s inside my sister
And he will not behave.
Yes, the one with the charm
And the snake-oil grin—
Yes, that one.
Yes, I poisoned him.
⸻
TOWN WOMAN 1
You what?!
⸻
SALLY
It was self-defense, and honestly
He deserved worse—
But that’s not the point
He’s possessing her first!
⸻
PRE-CHORUS (tempo building)
He’s knocking over pictures,
He’s whispering her name,
He’s smiling with her mouth
And it’s deeply not the same.
I need five women
With steady hands—
You don’t need powers,
Just understand.
⸻
CHORUS (big, rhythmic)
We need a coven!
Right this minute!
Link your arms
And don’t unpin it!
We need a circle!
Salt the floor!
If he laughs—
Laugh louder than before!
We need a coven!
No book club chat!
No Pinterest boards—
This is combat!
⸻
VERSE 2 – TOWN WOMAN 2
Is this like crystals?
TOWN WOMAN 3
Is this like yoga?
SALLY
It’s like your worst ex
With unfinished closure!
⸻
BUILD (patter)
Do you faint?
No.
Do you scream?
Sometimes.
Can you hold a hand
And repeat three lines?
Good. You’re in.
⸻
CHORUS (bigger, slightly frantic)
We need a coven!
Stand your ground!
If the lights flicker
Don’t look around!
We need women
Who won’t let go
When the temperature drops
And the candles blow!
We need a coven!
Messy is fine!
Just keep your feet
Inside the line!
⸻
BREAK (music drops — Gillian’s voice echoing Jimmy)
Sally…
⸻
SALLY (fear cracks through)
That’s him.
Okay.
Nobody panic.
He feeds on fear—
So if you’re afraid,
Pretend you’re not.
⸻
FINAL BUILD (women gaining confidence)
Salt in the corners!
Lock every door!
He may be dead
But we’ve seen worse before!
We are a coven!
Ready or not!
You hurt one of us—
You get the lot!
⸻
FINAL LINE (strong unison)
No man haunts an Owens woman.
