A skeptical college professor discovers that his wife has been practicing magic for years.

Viewing Notes

This film keeps popping up on my Prime as a recommended title (of course) so I pushed play given that I haven’t seen it in a few years. Prefer the BURN, WITCH, BURN title. I could see this being remade today using modern recording devices to convey the witch and eagle superstition. Really is a very good movie.
