    S1 E4 - The Witch of Flowing Wells

    In the year 1970, Ann Stewart was dismissed from her job as a teacher at Flowing Wells High School for claiming to be a witch. What started as a bit of fun for her students got out of hand, but is that all that was at play?

    S1 E3 - The Witch of Pungo

    Grace Sherwood was a wife, a mother, a midwife, and healer, but was she a witch? This Sturgeon Full Moon, we are celebrating the life of the (possibly) first and last person to be convicted of witchcraft in the state of Virginia.

    S1 E2 - The Little Witch Girl of Pilot Knob

    In the town of Marion, KY, there is a cemetery with a very elaborate grave. Some say that each night, the spirit of a child witch stands atop that grave and asks for a kind soul to let her out. This is the real life story of what happened to 5-year old Mary Evelyn Ford and her mother, Mary Rebecca.

    S1 E1 - Tabitha Marie DeVisconti

    Is the sleepy little town of Farmville, NC cursed by a witch? Real quick disclaimer: Once There Was a Witch explores the real lives of women who have been called witches. Warts and all. This means that most every witch will have done something that I don't particularly agree with. In the case of Tabitha, she was a member and officer of several clubs that in our times (and probably in her times too) are racist or just generally glorify the conquest of white, cis, heterosexual men. While I am opposed to that, I chose to leave them in because I wanted to provide a whole picture. So far as I know, she was not a member of the KKK, but it was still really awkward to tell you all that she was a member of the "Daughters of the American Confederacy."
