In Romania, the homeland of Dracula and superstition, witches were pretty much spared from the medieval witch-hunts that plagued most of Europe and killed 100,000 women. In fact, witchcraft here is not only alive; it’s thriving, and it’s even feared by politicians. There are hundreds of witches in the country, and they make and break marriages, cure diseases, cast or release people from good and evil spells, and predict the future. Supposedly, one in ten Romanians visits a witch.

To find out how this influences modern Romanian society, Broadly correspondent Milène Larsson spends a week with Mihaela Minca’s witch clan and learns how to brew a love potion, cook up a curse, and even witnesses the exorcism of a woman supposedly possessed by the devil. We also meet Minca’s mother-in-law, Bratara Buzea, reputedly one of the world’s most powerful witches, who was jailed under communism when dictator Ceausescu banned witchcraft. Finally, we celebrate Summer Solstice, the year’s most important celebration, when the witches use their magical power to predict the future of mankind in the stars.

  1. You can’t cast out evil with evil. All these people need Jesus

    1. @gherkin yes, it’s true. I have friends that believe in elves. The have seen elves everywhere, in jungle and cities. Elves also lives in moon, Mars and other planets, which some people call them aliens.

    2. @Kelly Sardella I was probably replying to the wrong comment,I didn’t mean to reply to you but to the person who wrore the comment all the way above these replies,my apologises

  2. What happens when one goes to them to put a curse on someone and that someone comes back to them to get rid of their curse but without them realising it.

    1. It’s the same like you get a poison from a doctor to poison a man, then the man goes to the same doctor to get the cure. So the man is cured.

    2. @gherkin Don’t know about being a baby witch but your art is definitely bewitching

    3. @gherkin They provide emotional healing to people. Just like pastors or imams or motivational teachers. Words and rituals have power to heal people. In western psychology we have a very powerful technique of CBT which heals mentally unhealthy people through changing thought patterns through words. So I am not denigrating their contribution to society. But they don’t have any actual magical ability.

    4. @Anunaya Singh I get ur point but there are some people who don’t do it just for performance and stuff.
      As someone considered a baby witch (someone who isn’t a witch for long) I can tell that these women are actually not just doing it for show off,they put their thoughts and intentions in this

  3. I know witch in Bulgary,hungary,scopia kosovo when i used facebook… they believe in baba vanga.

    1. Re-upload or not this should not be in this channel.
      Asia is not Europe.
      Viceasia has less stories from Asia than what they are showing from Western countries.

  4. I wonder why it’s only women who are witches, and what the men in the family think of all this. I wish they asked (or maybe they did but they were too scared to say 😂).

    1. There are certain lineage that only the girls can learn. There are also certain magics that only male can learn.

    2. Ronan Louvel never seen a male witch ….. we need more males … women are abusing all the witch rights …..

    3. Men are Witches also. The word Witch is gender neutral; it’s for male and female.

  5. Me: I know she didn’t show up to this old lady’s house in a crop top
    3 minutes in: “For the festival I have to wear the right dress”

    1. exactly
      when u see crop tops and tight cloths
      don’t expect no chastity or marriage couples …

  6. Had a Romanian chick once … Dam she was amazing … Coffe and cigarettes and great conversation…

    1. swahili Mandela because they are they are the easiest w hores to grab. You don’t see other women going to the rich gulf countries to be owned.

    2. Revolutionary Communist been to Dubai many so what your saying is true … Club Moscow has the hottest Russian and Ukraine ladies ………

    1. Not really for their own gain,it’s actually really interesting to look at other cultures and see their traditions.

  7. These people are playing with fire… No pun intended.

    1. @ZUBOY
      See my reply to “Discovery Mine”
      (Not all Americans have ancestors that
      originated in Europe.)

    2. @Here_We_Go_Again2 Are you fking stupid ? India never existed before 70 years , so how the fk Romanians are Indians and HOW THE FUK IN 21st CENTURY VICE ASIA decided to show an european report on Asia JUST BECAUSE ONE GROUP LEFT INDIA thousands of years ago when India never existed !! if we use that logic them Americans are just Europeans and they deserve to be down on European news

      Yo! Google Search is your friend!
      *”Genetic findings appear to confirm*
      *that the Romani “came from a single*
      *group that left northwestern India” *
      *in about 512 CE”* -Wikipedia
      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romani_people

      The Romani aren’t the only
      traveling people in Europe.
      There are Native Irish, English,
      Scots and Welsh “Travellers”
      The Netherlands and Norway,
      as well as other countries once
      had (may still have) their own
      racial/ethnic groups of traveling
      people (as well as Gypsies).

      Most of these native European
      groups came from dispossessed
      farmers who were very poor and
      who were tenants on the worst
      land of the countries.

      During wars and during agricultural
      reorganization; they were displaced
      at various times.

      The Irish Travellers (yes, it is spelled
      with 2 “L’s”) are descended from
      people who were run-off their land
      by Cromwell and his troops. The
      land was seized by Cromwell and
      redistributed to people loyal to
      him during the Cromwellian war in
      Ireland (1649–53)
