History of Witches I Found on Net

"Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog"

"Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing"

"For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and babble"

"Double, double, toil and trouble, Fire burn, and caldron bubble"
William Shakespeare

The Witches' Cauldron*

Witches and Warlocks have had a long history with Halloween. Legends tell of witches gathering twice a year when the seasons changed, on April 30 - the eve of May Day and the other was on the eve of October 31 - All Hallow's Eve.

The witches would gather on these nights, arriving on broomsticks, to celebrate a party hosted by the devil. Superstitions told of witches casting spells on unsuspecting people, transform themselves into different forms and causing other magical mischief.

It was said that to meet a witch you had to put your clothes on wrong side out and you had to walk backwards on Halloween night. Then at midnight you would see a witch.

When the early settlers came to America, they brought along their belief in witches. In American the legends of witches spread and mixed with the beliefs of others, the Native Americans - who also believed in witches, and then later with the black magic beliefs of the African slaves.

The black cat has long been associated with witches. Many superstitions have evolved about cats. It was believed that witches could change into cats. Some people also believed that cats were the spirits of the dead.

One of the best known superstitions is that of the black cat. If a black cat was to cross your path you would have to turn around and go back because many people believe if you continued bad luck would strike you.

Repro Vintage Halloween Treats I Found Today

Bought at Pat Catans when I was at home visiting mom.
Witch I got today that son broke in 10 minutes.  Can you see the breaks?  Need some black glitter. Bought at TJ Maxx comes in black and purple.
This was all bought at tueday Morning.  3 shakers, some glitter halloween ornies owl, witch, cat and pumpkin.  2 bobble heads cat and pumpkin, 2 boxes made to look like old books,  and then for Christmas 2 bog white bottle brush trees.
So I went out to TJMaxx and Tuesday Morning and found these wonderful repro Halloween items.  I wanted to show you them all.  Now story today is do not let them sit out with small boys around.  I flipped today!  Totally flipped and went ballistic.  My younger son comes into my office where I have these items on the floor getting ready to put away, he I don't know trips, gets pushed by his brother or something and falls on the black witch breaking the bottom half of her off!  I only had it like 10 minutes before it got broke.  Well I flipped.  Sooo hubby hot glued it and I painted over the break points now I have to find black glitter to cover it up.  I was so mad.  My son just asked me about 5 minutes ago if I forgave him, which I do but i am still mad.  I am having a Malcolm in the Middle Mom moment >:(
