Happy Walpurgisnacht! It’s Witch’s Night, the night where witches go out broom riding to celebrate the arrival of spring. Well, okay, there’s actually a lot more to it, but that’s the gist of it.
There are lots of Hollywood movies featuring witches, but for the efforts of today’s list, I concentrated on the scary witches. Not all witches are bad, but all bad witches are scary.
Unfortunately, not every scary witch is in a good movie either, and making a list of scariest witch films was my biggest goal.
A list of the scariest witches is going to require a lot more research and will be more controversial! So, for now, watch these ten films and we’ll debate later.
Hereditary (2018)
VVitch (2015)
Autopsy of Jane Doe (2016)
Suspira (1977)
The Blair Witch Project (1999)
Gretel & Hansel (2020)
Drag Me to Hell (2009)
Black Sunday (1960)
The Wretched (2019)
There’s no order to this list. All horror is subjective, but I guarantee each of these films has a couple of scenes that will scare the skin off your bones.
