Witches Trying to Charm Prince
Robed witches danced and chanted in the dark on an English country hilltop, trying to charm Prince Charles out of plans to build a village on farmland he owns in the area.
Five witches from the 200-strong Covenant of Earth Magic invoked psychic powers Monday night at a makeshift altar in an attempt to influence the heir to the throne to change his mind.
The prince, one of Britain’s biggest landowners, plans to build a village near the southern town of Dorchester.
The witches said they were called in by a woman opposed to the development.
