Witches are fascinating. They used to portray them as with ugly faces and long big noses. Now they're quite pretty.

Many decent-looking women were burnt for being "witches", I think. Joan D'Arc (the French Christian schizophrenic revolutionary of the middle ages who thought she could hear the voice of God) was burnt for being a heretic, which is the same sentence that witches were given. She was followed by many people, so I don't think she could've been that repulsive to the eyes.
Nowadays people dream of fantasy and going back to medieval knight stories, but always from the point of view of the mystic unseens. Not the noble-born knights but magic wielding outcast who can somehow save the world too (Harry Potter, who actually turned out to be a noble-born member of the Phoenix Order, some wizarding knights, lol).
The one i'm describing I think they're from children's book stories.
Sad but true! Back in the day, some people just punish people for the sake of it and not really delving into the details and not going through proper trial.
Harry Potter was my childhood favorite!♥
