소피는 모자가게에서 모자를 만드는 일을 한다. 어느 날 찾아온 황야 마녀의 마법에 걸려 18세 소녀가 하루 아침에 90세 할머니가 된 소피는 마법사 하울이 만든 움직이는 성에 대한 소문을 듣고 그곳으로 찾아간다. 하울은 소피가 황야 마녀의 마법때문에 할머니가 괸 사실을 알고 있었지만 짐짓 이를 모른 체한다. 할머니가 된 소피가 성에 머물게 되면서 움직이는 성은 그야말로 바람 잘 날이 없다. 소피에게 하울은 위대한 왕실 마법사가 아니라 성격이 괴팍하고 얼굴만 번듯한 바람둥이로만 보였기 때문이다. 별똥별이었다가 하울의 도움으로 불꽃 마귀가 된 캘시퍼, 교활한 마녀에게 조종당하는 호수아비, 마녀의 저주를 받은 인어들, 한 걸음에 17킬로미터를 가는 마법 장화...어느 곳으로도 갈수 있는 신비한 마법의 성을 둘러싸고 예측할 수 없는 사건들이 꼬리를물고 일어나지만, 왕실 마법사 하울은 재치와 전략으로 당당히 맞서나간다.

In the land of Ingary, such things as spells, invisible cloaks, and seven-league boots were everyday things. The Witch of the Waste was another matter.

After fifty years of quiet, it was rumored that the Witch was about to terrorize the country again. So when a moving black castle, blowing dark smoke from its four thin turrets, appeared on the horizon, everyone thought it was the Witch. The castle, however, belonged to Wizard Howl, who, it was said, liked to suck the souls of young girls.

The Hatter sisters--Sophie, Lettie, and Martha--and all the other girls were warned not to venture into the streets alone. But that was only the beginning.

In this giant jigsaw puzzle of a fantasy, people and things are never quite what they seem. Destinies are intertwined, identities exchanged, lovers confused. The Witch has placed a spell on Howl. Does the clue to breaking it lie in a famous poem? And what will happen to Sophie Hatter when she enters Howl's castle?

Diana Wynne Jones's entrancing fantasy is filled with surprises at every turn, but when the final stormy duel between the Witch and the Wizard is finished, all the pieces fall magically into place.
