Description
Witches have been a formidable presence in cinema for as long as cinema has existed. Over the decades, they have shifted shape and purpose, appearing in countless guises—from sinister covens to solitary spellcasters—each reflecting the cultural fears and fascinations of their time.
This collection of nine essays on ten films explores that legacy through a wide spectrum of titles, some celebrated, others more obscure. Each chapter considers not only the witch on screen but also the world that conjured her, revealing how these figures embody rich ideas, themes, and aesthetics across different eras.
