American-Canadian fantasy drama 'Good Witch' Season 6 premiered today, May 4, and with it came a new character who has clearly gotten viewers' minds boggled. 

After five successful seasons, Hallmark's supernatural comedy-drama is back with its sixth season. And, joining the 'Good Witch' Cassie Nightingale this season is Joy Harper, whose intentions are still unknown.

‘Good Witch’ Season 6 Episode 1 titled ‘The Anniversary’ showcases Cassie and Sam's wedding anniversary. However, their anniversary is graced by a row of guests, as always, keeping the couple on their toes.

However, it's the new guest at the Grey House who has gotten fans as thrilled and curious as Cassie and Abigail, who are yet to find the newest edition to the team, 'Good Witch'.  

Harper is essayed by Katherine Barrell, who is in town for some tough work and eager to start renovating one of the oldest houses of Middleton. On seeing Harper’s interesting entry into an already enthralling story, fans took to Twitter to ask who she is and what she’s up to.

"Cannot wait to check out this season's adventures on 'Good Witch'!! I am biased but Joy is such an amazing addition!! #GoodWitch #Goodies #GoodEarpers," said one fan. 

"5 minutes until two of my favorite TV Earths, Wynonna Earp and Good Witch, collide!! I cannot wait to see Kat Barrell's newest adventures as Joy!! #GoodWitch #Goodies #GoodEarpers," added another. 

"Did I just spend the last 3 and a half days watching all 5 seasons of the 'Good Witch' so I was prepared to see @KatBarrell character join the team because I support her as an actress? Yes yes I did, very excited to see what she has in store for Joy #Goodies #GoodEarpers #GoodWitch," wrote an excited fan. 

Meanwhile, the rest of them are already cheering for the new addition to the 'Good Witch' team.
 
"I'm getting major 'none of us have any free will over our lives' vibes from Joy — she's here for a reason more than that house... super convenient she's staying with the GOOD WITCH too! #Goodies #GoodEarpers #GoodWitch"

‘Good Witch’ Season airs on Sundays on Hallmark channel.
