Witchcraft for Wayward Girls

by Grady Hendrix

You see, we’d been taught that the devil was the worst thing in the world, but we were too young to understand that there were worse things than the devil. We were too young to understand that their job was to convince us that the most natural thing in the world was evil, and the most evil thing in the world was natural.

But for girls like us, down there at the Home, the devil turned out to be our only friend.

Florida was Hell.

So true sister

A mother was supposed to love her baby, but this paper would record forever that she was an unnatural mother.

Maybe being a witch means you go to Hell but I don’t mind if it means I don’t have to go home.”
