You think you have bad days?

About Sophie Hatter
Sophie Hatter, the main character in Howl’s Moving Castle is a young girl living a simple life of running a hat shop in her hometown. Sophie and her sister have a joke that the mythical Howl will pass by and eat anyone’s heart that he crosses paths with. Little does Sophie know that she has crossed paths with Howl and it won’t be the last time. The Witch of the Waste randomly comes upon Sophie and curses her with old age, taking away her young look.
Sophie goes on a hunt to find a cure for her curse, and in doing so finds the ancient castle of Howl. She ends up becoming the cleaning lady of their castle, makes some unlikely friends, and even grows strong feelings for the dark and mysterious Howl. She doesn’t forget about her mission to find a cure, but she does have to conquer a few tasks of turmoil to release herself from the curse.
