WHAT THE TALK TONIGHT IS ABOUT: Join us for a deepdive into the world of folk horror with this special viewing of The Witch (2015). In tonight's presentation we look at the genre of witch movies that claim to draw on historic events and use actual accounts of witchcraft and witch hunts as source material. We trace the origin of the archetypal western witch figures and track down the first use of brooms, pointy hats and black cats in early renaissance etchings and woodcuts. Let's gather for a night where historical events and the world of fiction meet and we celebrate the folkwitch.
