Plot
About 18 years after the first film's ending, William Adams is living with his adopted parents and assumes he is a normal 18 year old. He is unaware of his adoption. William's adoptive parents stole him away from the coven in the previous film, as they are white witches who did not agree with the aims of their coven. They have hidden William in the suburbs to protect him from evil.
His neighbor Deloris leaves William a strange object in an attempt to get William to join the dark side.
Unknown to William, he is the son of a powerful warlock and has inherited his father's powers. The father and many of his paternal relatives are members of a coven who have spent years attempting to bring about the end of the world. Deloris's ultimate goal is to and have William father her child, who will bring about hell on earth. At the last possible moment, William (with Spanner as his last name) is able to defeat the witch and resist evil.
