7!!This movie contains examples of the following tropes:
8* BurnTheWitch: The ultimate solution. Or is it?
9* CruelAndUnusualDeath: The witch runs [[spoiler:Tracy and Carter]] through a meat grinder feet-first before eating them.
10* TheEndOrIsIt: Although the house is destroyed, it's hinted at the end that the witch is still hunting children.
11* EvilRedhead: The witch has red hair and she's obviously very evil.
12* TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou: [[spoiler: The witch is revealed to be still alive at the end and before the movie fades to black she smiles devilshly at the camera implying that she'll start another murder spree and the viewer will probably be one of the many victims.]]
13* GigglingVillain: The witch is often heard chuckling sinisterly.
14* HotWitch: The titular witch once she regains her youth she's revealed to be actually a quite beautiful woman.
15* ImAHumanitarian: The witch eats children; girls for beauty, boys for strength.
16* PoliceAreUseless: The cops reject the teens' first call for help as a prank, and Deputy Karl only gets involved when Sammy threatens him with blackmail.
17* TheUnintelligible: The witch speaks some kind of ancient language who sounds like a chant.
18* WickedWitch: Take a guess.
