Legend: You can hear a little girl laughing in the woods and loud thumps. People have seen a white mist moving very fast in what looked like the living room, but only the foundation and a fire place remain of the main house. Up the hill just behind the main house is a small shack surrounded by a ditch and a cliff. In this shack there is a fireplace with one window on each side. You can hear many different voices and see people peeking out of the windows. There used to a basement to the main house, but it has been filled in now with dirt and rock. You cannot miss where the steps used to be. There's a small door on each side of the room also in the room with the fireplace. A small girl about 7-8 years old has been seen by many people. She was wearing a white dress. She had long black hair, but her hair is covering her face. This is one of the sites Shanda Sharer was taken before she was killed hours later by her captors. Legend also states witches originally occupied the house, until it was destroyed by the townspeople, and they haunt the remains of the house to this day.
History: The Witch's Castle was a ruined stone house, also known as Mistletoe Falls, located on an isolated hill overlooking the Ohio River.

I was sent four of the upcoming Lego Hero Factory sets to review. My review can be found on The Brothers Brick.
The famous little stone house in Portland goes by many names: the Witch's House, the Trail House, and the Forest House, though usually it's called by it's most common name, the Stone House. Even though the small, weed-overgrown structure has adopted an overflow of legends about the surrounding woods, and the origins of the house itself, you might not believe what its first incarnation was...
Built in the mid-1930s, the little elaborate house was used for a decade as a public trail bathroom before the building's water-line was completely destroyed during the infamous Columbus Day storm of October 12, 1962.
Hamamelis vernalis - Vernal Witch hazel
The witch hazel is just starting to open. Depending on the weather, it sometimes blooms earlier, even in January or February. Some years, the bloom is frozen because there is some bitterly cold weather after a warm spell in midwinter. The flowers will be on this shrub for the next month and are very fragrant.

From this article: "The name “witch hazel” alludes to a historical association between the plant and witches and magic. It has been thought to protect one from witches; the medieval English word wych, meaning “flexible,” may have been correlated and applied to the characteristically flexible witch hazel branches.
Modern witches consider witch hazel a magical herb and utilize it in spells to guard against evil influences and to heal broken hearts. Its bark and leaves are also used as astringents in herbal healing baths. Dowsers or water witches use the forked branches of witch hazel to find subterranean water, lost items, or hidden treasures beneath the earth."
This site gives this explanation for the name: "American witchhazel posses some interesting lore and uses. The most interesting use as been the use of forked limbs as dowsing or divining rods. Early European settles observed Native Americans using American witchhazel to find underground sources of water. This activity is probably where the common name witchhazel came from. “Wicke” is the Middle English for “lively’ and “wych” is from the Anglo-Saxon word for “bend.” American witchhazel was probably called a Wicke Hazel by early white settlers because the dowsing end of the forked branch would bend when underground water when detected by the dowser. This practice had a widespread use by American settlers and then exported back to Europe. Dowsing became an established feature of well-digging into the 20th century."

The Wicked Witch of the West was the trigger for my nightmares as a small child. This is the calix of a male flower, so perhaps this should be the Wicked Wizard of the West.
The calix of the male flower of Momordica cochinchinensis. The vine grows wild from Southern China, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Cambodia Vietnam and Northeastern Australia. In Thailand it is called “Fak Khao”. The bright orange melon type fruit is eaten December/January in an orange curry known as "Gaeng Som". We have a vine in our garden.
I visited the 10th Annual Street Diversions festival in Chelmsford City Centre yesterday with Liz Pitman.
This was the first time I had visited the festival and also the first time I have ventured into the very busy streets of my home town with my camera - being quite self concious taking pictures in a place where I am very likely to be recognised.
This is a shot of a "Witch" who was commanding three huge bird like monsters from atop her huge stilt legs - striding along the High Street and "intimidating" the crouds of people and the children.

Witch's Nest is a small pocket in Pennsylvanian age Warren Point Sandstone. It is decorated with numerous faint prehistoric petroglyphs. The age of this artwork is unknown. The site has been know for many years and it has suffered some modern abuse. Someone tried to remove a section of decorated wall, without success I imagine. The sandstone, in the pocket, is very soft making it a good media for carving but it would crumble if chiseled on.
