Description

Double, double, toil and trouble; this week’s episode will make you chuckle (hopefully). Leigh and Nate are talking about the reasons you could be labelled a witch in the 18th Century, including having red hair and having too many children. They discuss what was involved in witchcraft trials in the UK and how those who were convicted were executed. This week’s story is about using a spell to get revenge and it not turning out exactly as expected.
