Witches of Benevento

• ... that the legend of the Witches of Benevento inspired a ballet by Franz Xaver Süssmayr, a theme from which was adapted as a virtuoso violin piece by Niccolò Paganini?

• Comment: A new witch article just in time for Halloween.

• Mostly unsourced. In particular, the ballet Il Noce di Benevento source mentions Salvatore Viganò and Franz Xaver Süssmayr but the fact that Niccolò Paganini composed the violin piece Le Streghe as variations on a theme from Süssmayr's score is not referenced.
