Witches in fiction have always been a symbol of female rage and women who are outcasts in society. Millennial women grew up with movies like The Craft, Hocus Pocus, and Charmed teaching us to embrace our inner power and our place in the fringes of society as outsiders for those of us that stray from the traditional marriage and wife route that society so desperately wants for us to be.

With things like the Practical Magic 2 and Disney Pluses The Coven Academy, and the internet’s obsession with Etsy witches, it’s safe to say that the witch obsession hasn’t died down. But I think something else important is happening as rape culture becomes exposed online with the Jeffery Epstein case, and the Cornell 7 rapists, women are drawn to the idea of having the power to save themselves.

Something that witches have, and so it makes sense that in turbulent times, women have become interested in witches again.

And, as more millennial women enter the world of entertainment, I think it makes sense that they’ll want to create shows and books like they grew up with. While Sabrina the Teenage Witch already had a reboot in the 2010s, there are still plenty of other things in witchy media that I would like to see turned into a television series or film.

Sweep was about a teenage girl named Morgan Rowlands who discovered that she was a witch. It was written by Cate Tiernan Much like The Vampire Diaries and Twilight, there’s a love triangle.

Circle of Three by Isobel BIrd focuses on a group of friends who end up joining a coven and experience magic the deeper they study it.

There’s plenty more that I could think of, but I want to see more women in power in fiction. Diversity has been reduced severely the past decade and that includes things made for women and girls that aren’t romances.
