I suggest The Wicked Deep, which I read very recently and highly recommend. I thought of Hex as I was reading it.Besides that, you could try Puffball, Witch House, Familiar Spirit, and maybe even Burn, Witch, Burn! (but you have to like Doll Horror for that one too).

Thankyou i will check those out, especially the first one.
I swear I posted a great list of books here, but I don't see my post. Check my fantasy bookshelf. :-)

It wasn't posted in this group, Ian. Your list is right where you left it in the other group. :)
Practical Magic by Alice HoffmanThe Witches of Eastwick by John Updike
Neither of them are horror, exactly, though each has its moments. What I like especially about the former is that it reads like Hoffman was channeling the Ray Bradbury of Something Wicked This Way Comes and twisting it toward a woman's perspective. (Didn't care for either of the movies based on these.)
Ooooh, I have Hex and The Witching Hour and haven't read them yet. Thank you for the recommendations!

The Once and Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow is wonderful and so is the trilogy that starts with A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness!
Here are about four more:The Malan Witch by Catherine Cavendish
Witch Island by David Bernstein
All Hallows Eve by Michael Penning
The House by the Cemetery by John Everson
