Witch Costumes
Boil, boil, toil, and trouble…how about being a witch for the night of your upcoming costume party? Witches carry a special power and presence that discourage most from meddling in their affairs. Show up at your costume event as a witch, and you are sure to make a respectable impression.
Witches have been recognized as part of western culture since the medieval era. At first they were believed to be in league with the devil, and thus were viewed as enemies of Christianity. For that reason, when they were caught in suspicious activities, most were tried quickly (and sometimes unfairly) before being burned alive or drowned, among other things. The famous 1692 witch trials of Salem, Massachusetts, provided a lasting testament to the influence of witchcraft when viewed from the perspective of those who felt helpless to stop or control it.
Yet, since then, largely in the twentieth century, some witches have been recognized for having positive attributes, too. For example, in The Wizard of Oz, the Good Witch helps Dorothy and friends make their way to the Wizard in hopes of getting help for returning to Kansas.
