Happy Halloween! I thought I'd honor today by posting photos of my favorite Witches. Before I offend any Wiccan readers, I wish to state that these are of course, representations of Witches created by Hollywood and in fairy tales. I've actually met a few real Witches, many many years ago when I lived near Salem, Massachusetts, and also in NYC some time ago. If you are interested, here are two real, living modern day Witches: Laurie Cabot, the Official Witch of Salem, and also Lexa Rosean, The Witch Doctor.
Above: Real Witch Laurie Cabot, The Official Witch of Salem, Massachusetts
Above: The Wicked Witch of The West...oh how she scared me ever so!
Above: Everybody's Favorite Witch, Samantha Stevens, from Bewitched!
Above: Professor McGonnegall from the Harry Potter series
Above: Glinda, the Good Witch
Above: Endora, the mischievous mother-in-law!
Above: Blast from the 80's, The Witches of Eastwick was a cool flick, with Cher, Michelle Pfiffer and Susan Saran Wrap.
Above: From the movie Hocus Pocus, Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy were a lot of fun, even if it was a kiddie movie.
Did I leave out any of your favorite Witches? Leave a comment!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Don't worry, I'm not offended! And I LOVE Witches of Eastwick....I haven't seen that in so long!
Happy Halloween Rick-what a great post for today. I love the diversity of the witches you picked...and Hocus Pocus was a lot of fun!!!
Glinda...totally my favorite.
Oh, to be GLINDA. All pretty, smiling, lots of jewels, and that thing on her head.......
wicked witch of the west and the harry potter witches so rock!!!!
Oh, how about Wendy the Good Little Witch. I think she's a spin off of Casper.
Do you remember her?
Happy Halloween.
I must admit, my favorite witches had The Power of Three going for them. The sisters of Charmed - they looked great and kicked demon ASS every day.
Happy Halloween PSS!!!

A day late but I always thought Macbeth's witches were cool.
You hit every one of my favorite witches. Margaret Hamilton is still the best by far!! :)
Holie MOlie, I forgot that SJP was in Hocus Pocus...where's her tutu? :)
Yes, your fav witches are as well mine..I'll take Glinda..:)
Always,
Crusty~
Broom Hilda...well, she isn't my favorite but I don't think anyone has mentioned her.
My favorite witch from the Wizard of Oz is the one under the house. All you see are her feet where Dorothy's house has landed. Her sister seems quite loyal to her and I totally understand why the Wicked Witch of the West would be looking for revenge. As a kid, I always felt bad for the Wicked Witch of the East.
