I think "magic" in Ravenswood doesn't mean flying broomsticks, black cloaks and cauldrons, I think it is going more towards legends of the founding days of this town. Many towns have such legends, and many inhabitants grow up with them, believing in them, even if it is just for amusing tourists.

Maybe in Ravenwood history there was a wiccan cult there, not witches but strange women and men using the fear of the unknown in these days to manipulate the other residents. Curses have nothing magical in it, but they still work if the cursed one believes in them. It is just a matter of the right words and then faking one or two accidents according to this "curse" and the rest will just happen out of the subconcious of the cursed one - not magic but psychology.

A curse is not something that always has to be Harry-Potter-esque, it could just be some kind of regional lore - even if they did a very good work drawing Ravenswood as place of mystery in yesterday's PLL.

After all, I'm looking forward to it, hoping there won't be any flying fireballs and glad to see more of Meg Foster (Who really has the looks to intimidate people to believe she can actually curse you)
