You’re Sew Vain (You Probably Think This Spell’s About You)
A demon who steals skin, a deal for eternal beauty, and a sisterly crisis of vanity — it’s all in a day’s work for the Charmed Ones. Join us as we peel back (pun intended) the demon of vanity, the sin behind it, and what it really means to grow older magically.
Trigger Warning: This episode contains content like violence, murder, human skin/flaying, sensitive commentary on prostitution and vulnerable individuals, references to mental health disorders and addiction, and religious symbolism and gendered punishment.
