Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In which play does the audience hear three witches reciting, "Double, double, toil and trouble; fire burn, and cauldron bubble"?

Answer: Macbeth

The witches (or "weird sisters") appear in only a few scenes in "Macbeth". They are, however, critical to the play because they provide the impetus for Macbeth to seek the crown and the illusions that he is safe. Ironically, Macbeth says of them, "And damn'd be all those that trust them!" He trusted them, and he ended up damned.

2. What is the newspaper comic strip created by Russell Myers that features a 1500 year-old witch?

Answer: Broom-Hilda

"Broom Hilda" first appeared in 1970. Broom Hilda is a beer-guzzling, cigar-smoking, man-hungry witch with green skin and a wart on her nose. She has the ability to time travel. Her friends include Irwin Troll, Nerwin (Irwin's sassy nephew), and Gaylord Buzzard.

3. What novel by John Updike features three witches in a small Rhode Island town and their various relationships with Daryl Van Horne?

Answer: The Witches of Eastwick

Jane Smart, Alexandra Spofford, and Sukie Rougemont, women who no longer have husbands, form a coven that is disrupted by the appearance of Van Horne who seduces each of the three and then marries their innocent friend, Jenny. The witches plot revenge.

4. In the musical "Wicked", what is the name of the Wicked Witch of the West?

Answer: Elphaba

The Wicked Witch of the West is not named in L. Frank Baum's book "The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz" or in the 1939 "Wizard Of Oz" movie. In the musical, Elphaba is based on the character portrayed by Margaret Hamilton in the film: green skin, black clothing, and a tall peaked hat.

5. This witch was created by Elzie Crisler Segar as a nemesis to Popeye. What is her name?

Answer: Sea Hag

The Sea Hag is the last witch on Earth. She is a pirate whose boat is "The Black Barnacle". Because Popeye's code of honor prohibits him from hitting any woman, even the Sea Hag, Olive Oyl sometimes steps in to deal with her.

Answer: Hermione Granger

Hermione is the only child of two muggle dentists. She appears in all of the "Harry Potter" books, having very important roles in the outcomes. She was portrayed in all of the eight "Harry Potter" films by Emma Watson.

7. From 1964-1972, "Bewitched" was a very popular television show starring Elizabeth Montgomery. What was the name of the witch she portrayed?

Answer: Samantha

"Bewitched" featured a witch (Montgomery) who married a human (Dick York, followed by Dick Sargent) and who tried to live an ordinary human life. Most of her magical family disapproved of the match. Tension between them and her husband keyed many episodes. Endora was her mother, Aunt Clara was her usually befuddled aunt, and Tabitha was her daughter.

8. Harvey Comics featured "The Good Little Witch" who, unlike most witches, did good deeds (like Casper the Friendly Ghost). What was her name?

Answer: Wendy

Wendy first appeared in 1954 in various Harvey Comics. She was given her own comic, "Wendy The Good Little Witch", in 1960.

9. Ursula the Sea Witch is a character in which Disney movie?

Answer: The Little Mermaid

Ursula is the primary antagonist in "The Little Mermaid". Part human and part octopus, she works diligently pretending to be a friend to Ariel while really trying to prevent Ariel from marrying Prince Eric.

10. What is the name of the Warner Brothers "Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies" cartoon witch?

Answer: Witch Hazel

Chuck Jones got the idea for Witch Hazel from a Walt Disney cartoon. Jones created the 1954 Bugs Bunny cartoon "Bewitched Bunny" that retells the "Hansel and Gretal" story. Witch Hazel appears in several more cartoon features, movies, and video games.
