Discover the Horror Podcast – Episode 48: Witches

Night of the Eagle aka Burn, Witch, Burn (1962), Eyes of Fire (1983), Pyewacket (2017)

Welcome to Episode 48, where we are about to discuss one of the oldest perceived monsters in our history . . . witches. But as we know in film, there are many different types of witches, therefore a lot of different types of witch movies. Some titles the craft is done for good, while there are others to use it for more of a darker side, maybe for a personal gain. And then there are those that are just plan evil.
