The years between puberty and adulthood can be exciting and difficult,” wrote Silver RavenWolf in 1998. No one would have agreed with her more vociferously than Louise Miller, protagonist of 1989’s most tubular film: Dorian Walker’s Teen Witch.
The food was bad, the magic was bad, and both were written by people who had all of this knowledge they forgot to put down on the page.

GASTON, N.C. — A transcript of Daniel Scott Holbrook’s plea deal in court last month doesn’t jibe with his version of events. Holbrook pleaded no contest to charges of disseminating obscenities after, by his account, an attempt to download a movie from a file-sharing site yielded hundreds of illegal images. However, the prosecutor asserted during the proceedings that Holbrook had admitted to the officers who arrived at his home to not only downloading the images in question, but using them for personal gratification. Wiccan Priest and Rev. Tony Brown, who is otherwise unaffiliated with Mr. Holbrook and his grove, was at the original hearing, and shared his account with The Wild Hunt at that time. He omitted the information because he wasn’t sure he heard it correctly, saying only, “Some of the details in [Holbrook’s and others’] accounts differ from what I heard in court.”
