If you're a witch (or at least look like one), then you could be earning $94,000 a year. A Somerset, England tourist attraction called the Wookey Hole is looking for someone conventionally witchy to live in a cave and basically witch at people. The pay rate is pretty good, and sure beats waiting tables. Auditions are on July 28, and applicants must turn up in costume. Please note that the audition is gender-blind, so male witches (warlocks?) can also give it a go.

As the Wookey Hole's staff explain, the job spec requires someone to "live in the cave, be a witch, and do the things witches do".

According to legend, the original witch inhabited the caves in the dark ages until she was turned to stone by the Abbot of Glastonbury for causing witch-like woes such as souring the milk and spoiling crops.


Also please note that the Wookey Hole has nothing to do with wookiees.
