47 free The Craft trivia questions with answers. This trivia quiz on The Craft covers the 1996 teen witch movie from the first pencil Sarah levitates to Nancy in restraints insisting she can fly. The plot questions run through the four spells and what each one costs, the Invocation of the Spirit on the beach, the walk on water past beached sharks, the shop owner who warns the girls, and the finale of mirrors, insects and a fake plane crash. Behind-the-scenes questions cover the 85 actresses who screen-tested, why Sarah's actress wore a wig, the practising Wiccan who wrote the incantations, the occult shop Fairuza Balk bought mid-shoot and the Los Angeles locations that stood in for St. Benedict's Academy. The back end takes in the soundtrack (Our Lady Peace, Love Spit Love, Heather Nova), the MTV Movie Award, the Katy Perry song it inspired, the 2013 Hollywood Forever reunion and the 2020 sequel The Craft: Legacy, including its final-scene reveal. Every answer has been checked against the film's Wikipedia page and the pages for its cast and sequel, and each explanation adds one detail worth remembering.

Q 01Which Baywatch star did The Craft beat to number one?
Pamela Anderson
Pamela Anderson. Her comic-book film Barb Wire arrived with far more publicity, yet The Craft took about $7 million to top the weekend, which Columbia's own distribution chief called a nice surprise.
Q 02Which sleepover game do the four girls play in The Craft?
Light as a feather
Light as a feather. The director says he added the game after watching his older sister and her friends play it; Rochelle's rise off the floor was filmed with the actress on a hydraulic lift.
Q 03In The Craft, who plays Sarah Bailey, the new girl who completes the coven?
Robin Tunney
Robin Tunney. Her Sarah is the 'natural witch' the three outcasts have been waiting for, which is why their spells only start to work once she joins the circle.
Q 04Which actress plays Nancy, the coven's unstable leader, in The Craft?
Fairuza Balk
Fairuza Balk. When a bus driver warns the four to watch out for weirdos, it is her Nancy who answers him: 'We are the weirdos, mister.'
Q 05Which Party of Five star plays the burn-scarred witch in The Craft?
Neve Campbell
Neve Campbell. Known then as Julia from the TV drama, she was by far the best-known of the four; two horror hits in a row, both released in 1996, then made her a star of the genre.
Q 06In The Craft, Rochelle Zimmerman is played by which actress?
Rachel True
Rachel True. The part was written for a white actress and she had to battle for an audition; once she won it, Rochelle was rewritten as Black and given a racist classmate to contend with.
Q 07In The Craft, who plays Chris Hooker, the football player Sarah puts under a love spell?
Skeet Ulrich
Skeet Ulrich. The spell works far too well: his cocky Chris is soon helplessly lovesick, phoning Sarah at three in the morning to suggest they move in together.
Q 08Classmates in The Craft give the three outcast girls a nickname that puns on which film?
The Witches of Eastwick
The Witches of Eastwick. The school calls the trio 'the Bitches of Eastwick', though Roger Ebert joked that with their black lipstick and dog collars they looked to him like normal, popular teenagers.
Q 09In The Craft, what is the name of the powerful deity the girls worship?
Manon
Manon. The screenwriter made the god up, choosing 'a beautiful woman's name with the word man in it'; Nancy explains that if God and the Devil played football, he would be the stadium.
Q 10In The Craft, what does one of the trio see Sarah do in class that marks her as 'the fourth'?
Move a pencil by thought
Move a pencil by thought. It happens in French class, and the three, whose rites need one witch for each point of the compass, decide she is the one they have been waiting for.
Q 11In The Craft, what happens to the vagrant who chases Sarah along the street?
He is run down in traffic
He is run down in traffic. The other three are thrilled, sure that the group's combined will did it: the first hint that together the four have real power.
Q 12In The Craft, what does Chris do after their date that drives Sarah to a love spell?
Lies that they slept together
Lies that they slept together. He tells the whole school, adding that she was the worst he ever had; her spell then makes him so obsessed with her that he turns violent.
Q 13In The Craft, Rochelle's curse on her racist bully has what effect?
Q 21At the end of The Craft, where is Nancy?
Committed to a psychiatric hospital
Committed to a psychiatric hospital. Sarah has bound her from doing harm, and the last we see of Nancy she is strapped to a bed, stripped of her magic and insisting she can fly.
Q 22Near the end of The Craft, what does Sarah bring crashing down beside the two witches who come to make peace?
A tree branch
A tree branch. Sarah turns the pair away and they grow scornful, so she drops the branch right beside them and warns them not to end up like Nancy.
Q 23In The Craft, what is the name of the fictional Catholic school the girls attend?
St. Benedict's Academy
Her hair falls out
Her hair falls out. It starts coming away at the school pool, and when Rochelle later finds the girl sobbing in the showers, the revenge stops feeling good.
Q 14In The Craft, what does Bonnie ask the spell for?
Beauty
Beauty. Her scars vanish, and she promptly turns vain and cruel; in the finale Sarah frightens her off with a mirror that shows the burns come back.
Q 15In The Craft, how does Nancy's abusive stepfather die after she casts a spell for power?
A heart attack
A heart attack. It kills him within seconds, and the life insurance nobody knew he had lets Nancy and her mother swap their run-down trailer for a high-rise apartment.
Q 16In The Craft, what is the dangerous ritual Nancy pushes the coven to perform on the beach?
Invocation of the Spirit
Invocation of the Spirit. Nancy describes it as calling the god and taking him into yourself until he fills you; a bolt of lightning hits her mid-ritual, and she comes out of it reckless.
Q 17In The Craft, Nancy is seen walking on water the morning after the ritual, surrounded by what?
Beached sharks
Beached sharks. Dead sea creatures litter the sand around her; the crew simply laid plastic sharks along the shore, and the director recalls passers-by panicking at the sight.
Q 18In The Craft, who runs the shop of charms and candles and warns the girls about the ritual?
Lirio
Lirio. The script introduces her as 'an ethereal Latina' who eyes the girls warily; they ignore her warning, and the ritual is what tips Nancy into recklessness.
Q 19In The Craft, how does Nancy kill Chris at the party?
Throws him out a window
Throws him out a window. She had worn Sarah's face to seduce him; when he sees through the disguise and calls her jealous, she shouts that he does not exist and hurls him out by magic.
Q 20In The Craft, what do the other three make Sarah believe to push her toward suicide?
Her family died in a plane crash
Her family died in a plane crash. The three also overrun her house with snakes, rats and insects, and the terror backfires: Sarah calls on the same power herself and comes back stronger.
St. Benedict's Academy. The script called it St. Bernard's; the name had changed by the time a Los Angeles public school was dressed with religious statues to play it.
Q 24Who plays Laura Lizzie, the bully Rochelle curses, in The Craft?
Christine Taylor
Christine Taylor. A year earlier she had been the squeaky-clean Marcia in The Brady Bunch Movie, so the era's sunniest sitcom daughter became this film's racist villain.
Q 25Which future star was held for a role in The Craft but released to make another film before shooting began?
Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie. The casting director says the studio had still not confirmed The Craft would be made when Jolie was offered Foxfire, so they had to let her go.

Bonnie
Bonnie. In what the director called a reverse-Hollywood story, she wanted to keep the smaller part and had to be talked into playing the lead.
Q 27The Craft's lead wore a wig as Sarah after cutting off all her hair for which 1995 film?
Empire Records
Empire Records. She had cropped her head for that film, and though the costume designer loved the pixie cut that was growing back, the studio insisted Sarah have long hair.
Q 28What was Pat Devin, whom The Craft's producers hired as an on-set adviser?
A practising Wiccan
A practising Wiccan. Credited as a technical consultant, she helped write the chants, because the director wanted real witches to watch the film and say it did not offend them.

An occult shop
An occult shop. She says its owner was retiring and the store was about to become a Chinese restaurant, so she bought it to keep it open.

Return to Oz
Return to Oz. She played Dorothy, packed off for electric-shock treatment before escaping to a ruined Oz; a year later she was a trainee witch in The Worst Witch.
