EXPRESSIONS RELATED TO WITCHES (THE WITCHING HOUR): meaning and examples

Hello everyone; I hope you had a good weekend! 

Next Sunday is Halloween, so this week we are looking at expressions related to WITCHES

Our first WITCH expression of the week is: THE WITCHING HOUR

Definition: this expression refers to midnight, with reference to the belief that witches are active and magic takes place at that time. More generally: the time, especially the dead of night, when bad or sinister things are believed to be most likely to happen.

Sentence 1: You're not going to believe this, but I woke up during the witching hour last night and when I looked around, I could have sworn I saw something standing in the corner of my room watching me. I was pretty scared at first. 

Sentence 2: They say the Headless Horseman only comes during witching hours.

Enjoy the rest of your day. I'll see you tomorrow with a lesson about the expression WITCH HUNT.
