"Im Märchen haben Hexen immer alberne Hüte auf, tragen schwarze Umhänge und reiten auf dem Besen. Diese Geschichte ist jedoch kein Märchen. Sie handelt von echten Hexen ... echte Hexen tragen ganz normale Kleider und sehen auch wie ganz normale Frauen aus. Sie wohnen in normalen Häusern, und sie üben ganz normale Berufe aus. Deshalb ist es so schwer, sie zu erwischen."
