We’re trying to be professional and hold it together here, but let’s be honest; we’re all going to be extremely jealous of whoever wins thisThe Witchgiveaway. The movie takes place in New England in 1630 and focuses on a family of seven that’s banished from a colonial plantation and must build a life for themselves on an isolated piece of land located right next to a forest reeking of bad juju. There’s rotten crops, creepy animals, a missing baby and loads of inexplicable behavior and occurrences that’ll force you to consider the possibility that a supernatural force may be tearing this family apart.

In this exquisitely made and terrifying new horror film, the age-old concepts of witchcraft, black magic and possession are innovatively brought together to tell the intimate and riveting story of one family’s frightful unraveling in the New England wilderness circa 1630.
New England, 1630. Upon threat of banishment by the church, an English farmer leaves his colonial plantation, relocating his wife and five children to a remote plot of land on the edge of an ominous forest — within which lurks an unknown evil. Strange and unsettling things begin to happen almost immediately — animals turn malevolent, crops fail, and one child disappears as another becomes seemingly possessed by an evil spirit. With suspicion and paranoia mounting, family members accuse teenage daughter Thomasin of witchcraft, charges she adamantly denies. As circumstances grow more treacherous, each family member’s faith, loyalty and love become tested in shocking and unforgettable ways.
