I was rattled by the encounter for a week and then put her out of my mind and have gone out of my way to keep her name out of my thoughts and mind. I sent her an X-mas card heard nothing in return. I used to see her all the time and now I never see her. She's a very popular neighborhood mom and school volunteer - a role she's been cultivating for years.

It's almost as if I don't exist and now I wonder what's up. I understand COVID, but this feels different. Not sinister, but like I'm not welcome.

I've been reading the Old Testament and there are so many instances of the idea that a certain kind of evil and curses are out there. Now I wonder if she could have put a curse on me. Nothing too dark, but a curse. Is this possible or am I overreacting?

You have NOT put her out of your mind. You are obviously fascinated by the idea of there being a witch in your neighborhood.

I tried, it does not work without the Spider leg.

Yes.

No.

Lol

I would advise the following:

Procure a snake and filet as well as an eye of newt, toe of frog, wool of bat, tongue of dog, adder's fork, blind worm's sting, lizard's leg, and owlet's wing.

Boil and bake.

Enjoy.

How can I enjoy? You forgot to include the incantation I’m supposed to recite as the caldron boils!

Ugh.. you two.. . and where is a SPIDER LEG! without it all that is completely USELESS!

When I was a kid, I heard my mom talking with a neighbor who said that her sister when was a little girl had an evil eye and that nobody let her into the chicken coop or the chickens died. I was like five when I heard that and this scared me poopless, I avoided that person like a plaque thinking she might have the same evil powers. Best part is, nobody I knew at the time had chickens .. but one could never be too careful wen one is 5

Now come to think of it, that kid might have been just one mean kid who could have some psychotic tendencies and was killing chicken for fun. Who knows.

Scientific fact: In order for a curse or superstition to work you need to believe it does.

Curious -- what is the extent of her power?

Thank you. I know it sounds insane, but I also know people and she’s just a bit off and it kind of scares me.
