Wookey Hole’s winning witch

Wookey Hole witch

A Somerset tourist attraction has announced the winner of a coven-ted role as house witch after a series of Hex Factor auditions.

More than 50 budding witches took part in the two-hour try-outs at Wookey Hole in the Mendip Hills with local girl 26-year-old Anna Dixon coming out on top.

Anna, from nearby Glastonbury, gets to take on the £50k a year job after the previous incumbent 29-year-old actress Sunny Van der Pas handed in her notice last month.

Anna’s first duties will be the opening of Halloween at Wookey Hole.
