Question: when I say witch, what visual comes to mind? don't cheat & look at other answers? have you been influenced by modern views?\n\nIn the old days witches were depicted as ugly vile creatures. But in modern times they are depicted as beautiful. \nex. charmed, bewitched ect...

Answer: lol... yes, the inner child in me (which controls my imagination at times) sees an old woman with a long nose, grayish black hair with a black hat, short with a hunched back, riding on a broom... but evil (if that's what witches really are) comes in many shapes and sizes and looks... :-)
