old witch
Wizened spell-casting woman
Old witch is a disparaging term for an unpleasant older woman, suggesting someone crabby, meddlesome, or malicious: The old witch next door yelled at us for playing in her yard.
The phrase draws on folklore imagery of witches as ugly old crones.
It's milder than calling someone a bitch but still openly insulting.
