Agatha Harkness was first introduced to the MCU in WandaVision as a nosy neighbor named Agnes. Eventually, her true identity as a puppeteer and powerful witch was revealed by Wanda Maximoff.
We now have confirmation that Agatha will return in her own series, which will be part of Phase 5 of the MCU.
The series was originally titled Agatha: House of Harkness, but was renamed Coven of Chaos in July 2022. The latest (and hopefully final) title for the series is The Darkhold Diaries. Find out what we already know about production.

At the moment, Disney has not announced an exact release date for the new series. However, according to rumors from The Hollywood Reporter, the studio plans to take Agatha’s adventures around the world. Halloween 2024.
Agatha first appeared in 1970’s Fantastic Four #94 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. She was depicted as an elderly nanny hired by Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman to care for their son Franklin. As it turned out, she was a witch who remembered the sinking of Atlantis and was one of the accused at the 17th century trial in Salem. After many adventures with the Fantastic Four and Scarlet Witch, Agatha was finally burned at the stake. However, she came back to life and eventually regained her youth.
In the comics, Agatha was Wanda’s mentor, who taught her how to use and control magical powers. Eventually, she discovered that Maximoff’s children were merely manifestations of the soul of Mephisto—one of Marvel’s villains—and erased Wanda’s memory of them, protecting her from trauma. However, when Scarlett Witch learned the truth, she killed Agatha in cold blood.

In WandaVision, we saw a much darker version of Agatha. Instead of being Wanda’s mentor, she was her enemy and a sinister witch seeking power, although she was still funny and charismatic. At the end of the series, she was captured by Wanda as Agnes and sentenced to live in the ordinary world.
The creators have not yet revealed any details about the plot of Darkhold Diaries. However, they will certainly depict Agatha’s fate after the events of WandaVision. The witch will most likely find a way to break Maximoff’s spell and return to her witchy antics.
We can also learn more about her past and the witch’s family. We’re also keeping our fingers crossed for another musical number like “Agatha All Along.”
