Witchy Wicks

If you happen to be “Googling” Fayetteville’s Hanna’s Candle Co., you might be surprised by the eighth listing that pops up on your computer screen.r

It’s The Witch’s Wares, a Web site devoted to witchcraft and supplies for the occult. The site features a number of candles from Hanna’s. r

The Witch’s Wares at www.witchway.net/books/candle.html (which includes a link to Hanna’s Web site, www.candlemart.com) touts itself as a pagan and occult store “selling fine pagan books and supplies.” The site also sells pentacles, pagan jewelry, crystal balls and books, including its bestseller “Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner.”r

Burt Hanna, president of the company, said he wasn’t aware of the Internet link and would be checking into the matter. Hanna’s doesn’t intend to have any connection with witchcraft or sellers of pagan supplies, he said. r
