A seamstress seeks for her inner peace but is haunted by her evil roots in horror-thriller “Heir of the Witch”

Heir of the Witch (2023) is a horror-thriller where an underprivileged seamstress, haunted by her past, seeks love and acceptance in high society but is faced with the curse from her evil roots.

Victoria U Bell is the mastermind behind the movie being the writer, producer, director, and main protagonist of the film. This is her debut feature after a few short films. According to her, Heir of the Witch (2023) is “a story that was drawn from my personal fears, anxieties, and individual experiences. In my youth, I learned to write from my heart and immerse into my deepest feelings and at times was hesitant and ashamed to admit my families dark, malevolent past and reveal my worst nightmares. The story of Heir of the Witch (2023) was birthed from my own childhood happenings. My grandmother on my paternal side, was a formidable witch. I was told she sold her soul to the devil and couldn’t die until the spirit of the darkness released her ghost only after she passed the ‘gift’ to someone else. Until this day, we do not know who she passed this ‘gift’ on to as we no longer associate with that side of the family for fear of condemnation”.

In the movie, Anna’s memories bring great pain, as she remembers the horrific death of her mother, caused by her alcoholic father, and the torment that followed while in the care of her grandmother. Her grandmother, an evil witch, often bound young Anna to a chair in a dark room, while performing sadistic witchery on her with her own blood. Her grandmother’s spirit lurks, constantly tormenting Anna in her solitude, provoking her to use the powers she was cursed with in her youth and to fulfill her dark destiny. The spirit of the witch continues to harass and taunt Anna and finds herself in the reluctant position of using her powers in order to push the Witch’s spirit away.

Ben Holtzmuller, Sophia Vandy, Deanna Rashell, Lorayn DeLuca, Julian Brittano, Rachel Petsiavas, Norwood Ezzell, Vanessa Neff, and Jennifer Adams complete the main cast.
