Once Mirabel discovered that each of her family members has exceptional power and they are in danger, she decided to protect her family. Alma Madrigal lost her husband Pedro and struggled to save her triplet children, such as Julieta, Pepa, and Bruno. Through a miracle, Alma lit a magical candle that created Casita, a home for the refugees. Soon, they built a town there named ‘Encanto’.

As Mirabel doesn’t have any power, still, she is treated in her family differently. Once, Mirabel discovered a crack around the house and the flickering candle. But when she wanted to see it with other family members, everything returned to normal, and the other family members doubted her.
