Song lyrics

[Elwood:]
There's something about the house itself, Father. It's always been cursed.

[Father Iwanicki:]
Do you believe in curses, my Son?

[Elwood:]
I believe that there are forces that can corrupt even the most innocent. I imagine that the witch, Keziah Mason, was pulled into that trap herself. She wasn't born evil, was she?

[Witch:]
Long ago light was elusive
Darkness brought me dreams intrusive with
Legends and lore
Legends and lore

Women then lived in God's shadow
Drawn by men into a hallowed holy war

And when my first born died
I was cruelly brought to trial
My innocence denied, I couldn't ignore
The legends and lore

[Judge Hathorne:]
In these times of superstition
Guilty by your own admission
Faith must be restored
You Devil's whore

Here you stand Keziah Mason
Our misfortunes you have hastened with your
Legends and lore

Now I shall sentence thee
As I've sentenced all the others
We can't show leniency
Faith must be restored
Amidst legends and lore

[Elwood:]
Judge Hathorne and the others didn't understand Keziah. She saw into the beyond, and they feared her.

[Father Iwanicki:]
Fear has always driven men to desperate acts. Where fear comes, evil follows.

[Witch:]
And in the dark of night
While the frenzied town was sleeping
There came a violet light
Which opened a door
To legends and lore
Legends and lore
Legends and lore
Legends and lore
