Britain's Got Talent's Witch breaks silence after terrifying performance to deny popular fan theory about identity

BRITAIN'S Got Talent's Witch has denied that its identity is really one of the show's star names.

Speculation is rife that Ant and Dec, former contestant Marc Spelmann or even Stephen Mulhern could be behind the terrifying act.


But a Twitter account that appears to be run by the scary character has poured cold water on all of the theories.

Responding to an article claiming to have unmasked them, the Witch wrote: "Stephen Mulhern, Ant n Dec, Marc Spelmann. Anymore? Nobody plays me. I AM me!"

A fan begged the act to keep their true identity concealed to keep the magic alive.

And it looks like we may never know who the Witch really is as they replied: "As you wish".
