Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Witches is a 1966 Hammer Horror film, featuring Joan Fontaine in her final cinematic role. She plays Gwen Mayfield, a former missionary in Africa - who was driven out by the native witch doctors. After she has recovered from her breakdown, she's asked to act as the headmistress for a school in Heddaby - a quaint little town in the countryside. Ms Mayfield is happy with the town at first...until she notices some curious behaviour from a lot of the locals. Particularly towards one of her students - 14-year-old Linda Rigg. Ms Mayfield is determined to find out the mystery of the town - even if it means confronting some sinister inner demons. Also stars Kay Walsh as Stephanie Bax and British horror regular Martin Stephens in a small role as Ronnie Dowsett.Not to be confused with the Roald Dahl novel of the same name. Or its film adaptation. Or The Witch's Hammer.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Actor Allusion: Joan Fontaine escaping an abusive situation to find solace in a teaching job? Hmm... | |

Aluminum Christmas Trees | |
| The Witches (1966) / int_67013b78 | comment |
Aluminum Christmas Trees: Ms Mayfield's class at school is very small, and includes students as old as fifteen. In small towns it's not uncommon for there to be one teacher taking several grades at once in the same room. | |

Abusive Parents: Downplayed but Granny Rigg apparently put Linda's hand in the mangle after catching her with Ronnie. | |

Ambiguously Gay | |
| The Witches (1966) / int_e34400ab | comment |
Ambiguously Gay: The coding is there for Stephanie, who is an unmarried older woman that lives with her brother, with a short haircut and a very dull, masculine wardrobe compared to Ms Mayfield. She's also very devoted to the latter, insisting on a First-Name Basis and acting very affectionately towards her. Her desire for Ms Mayfield to help her in the ritual sounds rather like a lover wanting their partner's approval. | |
