In an interesting campaign to promote season 2 of its popular fantasy drama The Witcher, Netflix drafted three popular witches from Romania – Casanndra, Aranka, and Crina – to see if their magic could predict the outcome character arcs in the show.
Working with Publicis Italy, Netflix gathered the questions and the witches made their predictions and provided the answers in 48 hours just before the show launched the new season.
Will Geralt and Yennefer be together again? No. Will Yennefer have a baby? Yes. Will princess Ciri become a Witcher? Yes, she will.
So the predictions go using magical tools such as molten lead, tarot cards, and a crystal ball the trio answered questions fans asked with no scripts, no leaks, only Romanian witch magic.
As fans of the show with an aversion to spoilers, we are not going to tell you whether they were right or not. You’ll have to watch The Witcher for yourself.
