Top 10 Best Movie Witches

Abigail Williams (Winona Ryder) - The Crucible

Technically, The Crucible is not a movie about witches, but it's based on the real-life events that resulted in the hanging of 19 people accused of witchcraft in Salem, Massachusetts, in 1692.
In the movie, Abigail Williams has been scorned by John Proctor after their affair, and as a result, she starts rumors of witchcraft.

Though the movie isn't about witches, people were hanged due to accusations of witchcraft caused by this woman who faked it all. To me, she is a real witch for that. Nobody can be more of a witch than someone who gets people killed with false claims. Also, she was real.

Lamia (Michelle Pfeiffer) - Stardust

Great and very underrated fantasy movie. Michelle's performance made it. She was believable and memorable.

Claudia Hoffman (Sigourney Weaver) - Snow White: A Tale of Terror

Winifred 'Winnie' Sanderson (Bette Midler) - Hocus Pocus

The great Bette Midler was stunning here.

Sally Owens (Sandra Bullock) - Practical Magic

Not my favorite movie about witches, but Sandra did a great job.

Queen Narissa is the main antagonist in Disney's 2007 live-action and animated hybrid film Enchanted. She is the wicked stepmother of Prince Edward and uses magic to manipulate those around her.

I was very excited to see the wonderful Susan Sarandon in such an interesting role. She was gorgeous in this film. Real witch.
