evil witch
Malevolent spell caster
An evil witch is a malevolent figure in folklore and fiction—a woman who uses supernatural powers to harm others through curses, poisoning, or dark magic.
The phrase is somewhat redundant, since witches in traditional stories are presumed evil unless specified otherwise: The evil witch cursed the princess.
In casual use, evil witch describes any spiteful or scheming woman: His ex-wife was an evil witch.
