description: The witches who populate these 100 delightfully scary stories include practitioners of white witchcraft &amp; devotees of black magic. Most are female, some are male. A few are thoroughly unclassifiable. They can be born witches or made witches, &amp; may mix simple love potions or volatile concoctions that threaten all we hold dear. Some resent not receiving the treatment they feel they deserve from lesser mortals; yet other witches don't even realize that they wield any special influence at all. The many writers who take on this ever-fascinating character (so fundamentally human unlike her more paranormal, ghostly brethren) include Martin Mundt ("Hunger Gulag"), Juleen Brantingham ("Burning in the Light"), Joe R. Landsdale ("By the Hair of the Head"), Simon McCaffery ("Blood Mary"), Terry Campbell ("Retrocurses"), Lawrence Shimel ("Coming Out of the Broom Closet") &amp; a coven of others.
