It’s a good ten months until Halloween, but a group of comedians in Lansing is keeping the occult alive at a monthly stand-up show. Comedy Coven starts and ends the show with witchy chants, but most of the show is just really funny stand-up.

Current State's April Van Buren talks to the three women behind the coven: Stephanie Onderchanin, Emily Syrja, and Tricia Chamberlain.
