Premieres December 21, The Winter Solstice, on AMC+ and January 2 on AMC

NEW YORK - DECEMBER 20, 2022 - AMC and AMC+ announced today the debut of All of Them Witches, a documentary exploring the history of witches, as a companion special to the anticipated series Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches. The doc premieres on Wednesday, December 21, the Winter Solstice, on AMC+ and on Monday, January 2 at 10:00 p.m. ET on AMC. All of Them Witches is a one-hour documentary that will explore an alternate and authentic history told from the perspective of today's most well-known, practicing witches, as well as scholars of history and anthropology.

The film examines the provocative history of Witch Hunts, paganism and voodoo, and challenges the myths that have become the fabric of popular culture. Select experts featured in All of Them Witches include Pam Grossman, author of Waking the Witch: Reflections on Women, Magic, and Power, witch and entrepreneur Bri Luna, witch and author Amanda Yates Garcia and content creator and actor Curly Velasquez.

All Of Them Witches was directed by Mona Panchal. The film was produced by XTR, the producers of Academy Award-nominated feature documentary Ascension, Emmy-nominated They Call Me Magic (AppleTV+) and this year's awards favorite, The Territory. Executive Producing are Kathryn Everett, Kathleen Flood, Bryn Mooser and Justin Lacob for XTR.

Additionally, the documentary is produced by Steffie van Rhee and India Wadsworth and Matthew Cherchio is co-executive producer.

All of Them Witches is a companion piece to Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches, which will debut Sunday, January 8 on AMC+ and AMC. Based on Rice's best-selling trilogy, "Lives of the Mayfair Witches," the eight-episode series focuses on an intuitive young neurosurgeon, Rowan (Alexandra Daddario), who discovers that she is the unlikely heir to a family of witches. As she grapples with her newfound powers, she must contend with a sinister presence that has haunted her family for generations.
