What is ‘Agatha All Along’ going to be about?

Agatha meets a goth teen who “helps break her free from a distorted spell,” according to Disney+. Once she’s free from the spell, the witch “finds herself down and out of power.”
“Her interest is piqued when he begs her to take him on the legendary Witches Road, a magical gauntlet of trials that, if survived, rewards a witch with what they’re missing,” per Disney+.
Together the unlikely pair assembles a desperate coven and sets off down the Witches Road in attempt for Agatha to regain her powers.
