Set in newly colonized New England in the early seventeenth century, the films deep historical and mythological background, as well as its complicated and interlocking character arcs, make for a film whose viewers will be well served by this Devils Advocate, the first stand-alone critical study of the film. As well as providing the historical and religious background necessary for a fuller appreciation, including an insight into the Puritan movement in New England Brandon Grafius situates the film within a number of horror sub-genres (such as folk horror) as well as its other literary and folkloric influences.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51979238900000,"sku":"NEW1800348053","price":34.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-witch-devils-advocates-1800348053","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
