Hocus pocus! Abracadabra! In 2009, the world was hooked on vampires and werewolves following the success of the "Twilight" franchise. After the release of "The Walking Dead" in 2010, zombies were all the rage. Nowadays, it seems that both the media and consumers alike are bewitched. As a woman with a witch hat tattooed to my arm for all of eternity, I can certainly see why some are quick to hop on this broom and fly. Television and movies are no exception.
