==Summary==
Winifred Sanderson was a witch who was sentenced to death during the Salem Witch Trials in 1693 alongside her sisters Mary and Sarah. However, three hundred years later, they were unintentionally brought back to life by a teenager named Max Dennison with the usage of lighting a black flame candle on a Halloween Moon. Seeking to steal souls to sustain her youth, she led her witch sisters in terrorizing the town of Salem once more before being eventually stopped by Max. She would later return thanks to yet another lighting of a black flame candle and terrorize Salem in the modern age.
