What is a witch?

Imagine witches existed today and were secretly doing the devils work all around us.  How would you know one if you were talking to one?  Describe the characteristics of a witch. What would you imagine a witch to look like? Why do you think this?

  1. A witch would look like a normal person but act differently. They might be fidgety and seem nervous. I think that they would be pale and maybe really skinny. In the Salome witch trials they described them to be very sick with hallucination so i would think that they would be kind of strange. Considering that they would be doing devils work i think that they would be very cautious because they do not want anyone to figure out what they are doing.

    A witch is a women who has special magical powers. Witches are usually undercover and disguised so it may be nearly impossible to tell who is a witch. They are undercover because they have a goal in mind. They may be stalking a person or getting information, but they do so discreetly. They would be just like a normal person but the way to tell someone is a witch, is by listening to her conversations and try to hear if there is any hint of the witch trying to get personal information.

    A witch is a creepy and sketchy woman who has evil powers. They are old or young, but they would have wrinkles and mysteriously look you in the eye. Their voice would be shaky, devious, and scary which would give you goosebumps. When you talk to them, they make you shiver. I think a witch would dress with shaggy clothes. They would have crimson red lipstick and have their fingernails painted black. I’ve seen what they look like from movies and Halloween costumes, but they would look more natural in real life. If one was in your class, she would be shy and not eat regular food. She would not talk to anyone but try to get into your head.

  4. A witch is a women who does spells on people and worships the devil or other dark things. A witch is a women who would look exactly what normal people look like. However, she would probably wear dark colors, have a black cat, and live out in the middle of the woods. I think this because it makes the most sense like the teenage vampires and werewolves.

  5. Witches have been viewed, in the past, in fairy tales, and in stories, as women who have black pointy hats, cloaks, warts, and brew potions. I think that a modern day with would look like a normal person. I believe that all people have a little bit of witch or wizard in us because we all have done a bad deed. A witch would carry out the devils work and do bad things. I believe that even if someone does not have the physical characteristics of what people consider a witch to look like, they can have some badness in them.

  6. A witch would be somebody who is evil and kept to themselves. They are usually a woman who can do evil magic. Also they are people who make scary potions and have broomsticks. You would know that you saw a witch because they would keep quiet, act scary and be evil.They would look like a normal person but they would act immoral.

  7. A witch is a person that does the devils work. They have mysterious powers. They would be old and they would be skinny and frail. Their voices would be shaky and dark. They would live deep in the woods waiting for the next traveler to pass by. They would wear ripped up gray clothing with eye that look like they have see everything and want to see death. They would stalk you and learn more about you and when they are ready nobody will even remember you were there.

  8. Witches are woman thought to have evil powers and work for the devil. There is no real way to tell what a witch looks like because they realize they have to disguise themselves in order to blend in. They cannot be obvious or else they will not be able to continue their work. The idea that they look evil and creepy may be what they look like when they are not trying to continue their work. They are popularly depicted as flying on brooms, but this seems to obvious in the fact that it would give away that they are witches. The reason witches were so hated was because they committed so much evil, which they would not be able to carry out if they dressed so obviously evil.
