Live Poll: Which Witch Would You Summon

Intro:

You are stuck in a magic forest. It's dark after midnight, creepy creatures lurk around you. You can hear them howl and see their shadows in the pale moonlight. Some of them are wild animals, moving on the moist, foggy ground; some others seem to be magical glowing appearings. You're caught. No gun, no knife, no arming, nor any armour or at least holy water. But you have a magic potion that allows you to cast a spell to summon a female witch that guides you and prevents you from harm in the dark woods on your terrifying way home.

Which of these witches would you summon to guide you through the evil darkness? (Remember, she is under your spell and can't cause harm to you.)

Cast your spell here.

Suggestions:

No Animated - someone could make that separately, maximum 2 witches of each franchise (all in all), if another user suggested before - bad luck! ;D

No superhero characters. TV-Series ok, but remember the franchise rule (TV&Movie=1).

Breumaster,

From you list, my vote:

The White Witch

However, this would be my preference:

Glinda

Billie Burke in The Wizard of Oz (1939)

Also, are you limiting you choices to movies? If so, you may wish to say so in your poll. Otherwise, there are quite a few television witches to could be included in your poll.

Hi, Dan. Didn't think about that.

2 pick per franchise over all, that's fix; includes movies and tv-series from one franchise together.

Well, I think tv-series are ok.

Just one thing: First I had Maleficent on my list, but then read she's a fairy, not a witch.

So I kicked her.

And I'll put your suggestion on the list. :D

You may want to look at my poll for suggestions. What a Witch 2020
I started mine after watching the live version of Mulan 1 day after you started yours. I did include animated characters. Also I did consider Tia Dalma but rejected her because as the movies of “Pirates of the Caribbean” continued, it was revealed she was not a witch at all but really the goddess Calypso trapped in human form. That is why I didn’t include the witches of Morva from “The Black Cauldron” because as “The Chronicles of Prydain” continued, it becomes clear that the witches were really goddesses appearing in the form of hags. Jeanine from “I dream of Jeanine” is not there too.

From my list, I recommend Xianniang (or another name, Xian Lang), the potter witches of Bellatrix Lestrange (I wouldn’t trust her) and Hermione Grainger, Samantha Stephens, definitely Lamia, and the Arthurian witches of Morgan la Fay/ Morgause and the Lady of the Lake. (Why do everyone who makes these polls about witches and wizards always forget Merlin, leFay, and the Lady of the Lake who set the standard of all the fictional witches and wizards to follow?)

now based on your information, I got to a axe maleficient off mine too.

@dgranger 

They won't get both polls live. So?

No, our polls are too similar. But I do see a difference in them. I asked for powerful witches. You, by your scenario, asked for witches that would help you. (The witch queen would kill you.) Peter suggested that we should work together.

Please read the intro. The witch is under your spell, so she can't harm you. I'll consider that at evening (CET).

Wiped Calypso of the list. She seems to be no witch, correct.

I voted. The poll is going exactly the way I thought it would. Hermione really should have been in there to give Jadis, Gilinda, and the wicked witch.

PS, I just bought a copy of “I married a Witch”. It’s hilarious.
