Original Note:
‘Witches stairs’ were not built to confuse witches. While the poster clearly states they are ‘believed’ to scare witches, it should be noted that this is simply an architectural practice to save space. The claim that they confuse witches is just a myth. https://www.reuters.com/article/fact-check/alternating-tread-stairs-were-not-historically-built-to-ward-off-witches-idUSL1N2L71QA/
