--To stop a witch from flying down your chimney, place a
horseshoe in it.
--Watch where you spit; a witch might take or saliva and use
it for evildoings.
--If you burn an elder tree, you are inviting a witch into
your home.
--Witches’ cakes are made with rye, barley, herbs, water and
a cup of baby’s urine so once you’ve burned the elder tree don’t ask her to
bring the dessert.
--Witches can super-size the power of their spells by
shaking their hair.
--Any witch will tell you that the best magic wands are made
from hazel wood. (The rest just don’t
measure up.)
--Witches can’t shed tears so don’t let ‘em fool you when
they pretend to cry.
--Witches raise storms at sea by catching spiders in pots.
--Witches’ brooms are not jet-propelled. If she intends to fly, a witch must first rub
on flying ointment before hopping on her broom.
--And finally, but most important of all—to protect yourself
against the evil eye, bad luck and illness, spit in your right shoe every morning.
Consider yourself warned and now well-prepared for
Halloween! Happy Hauntings!
