A witch who claims to have been involved in placing a curse on Charlie Kirk before his assassination has revealed she regrets the distress caused to the conservative activist’s widow, Erika Kirk.
In an interview with the Daily Mail, the spellcaster, who goes by the name Priestess Lilin, offered to correspond privately with Erika to explain her side.
She stressed that the hex was not intended to “physically harm” the Turning Point USA founder and that she “did not celebrate the loss of life.”
Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Sept. 10 during a campus event at Utah Valley University.
Two days earlier, the liberal website Jezebel published an article describing how it paid several witches on the online marketplace Etsy to curse Kirk in the days leading up to his death.
The article, titled “We Paid Some Etsy Witches to Curse Charlie Kirk,” was later removed after the assassination.
Megyn Kelly revealed on her YouTube show that Erika Kirk had been “genuinely rattled” by the Jezebel story, per the Daily Mail.
According to Kelly, the Kirks were so concerned that they asked a Catholic priest to undo the curse the night before Charlie was shot. Kelly said, “Why torture a family like this? A Christian, believing family. Why do this vile thing to a young couple?”
The Jezebel piece described the process of buying a curse “as easily as I can buy a phone charger” and asked whether readers were interested in punishing Kirk for his years of conservative activism.
One of the witches contacted by Jezebel was Priestess Lilin, who clarified that it was actually her “sister,” known as High Priestess Leamashtu, who cast the spell.
Lilin emphasized that the majority of her work involves spells for “protection and healing” and that summoning demons and communicating with spirits are “not inherently ‘evil acts.’”
Priestess Lilin told the Daily Mail, “We regret any distress experienced. What we do is done based on an impartial perspective and at a professional level. We respect the widow’s feelings and welcome a private conversation to address her concerns.”
She added, “Our spells are spiritual in nature and we do not perform actions that are intended to cause physical harm.”
Lilin further stated that while she cannot claim responsibility for Charlie Kirk’s death, she affirms the magic they work with is “very real.”
Both Lilin and Leamashtu have faced death threats and have been banned by Etsy from offering their services online.
Among their spells are “Infernal Justice Black Magick” and “Generational Black Magic Curse,” which promise to cause misfortune such as destroying friendships, instilling hatred, or causing someone to lose their job.
Megyn Kelly noted on her show that she had struggled with whether to reveal the incident because it was “so vile and off and odd.” She confirmed that the Kirks had turned to a Catholic priest to counteract the curse and that Erika Kirk, deeply frightened, prayed with him over Charlie the night before his assassination.
According to Lilin, the couple ultimately found comfort in their faith, affirming that “weapons will form but not prosper” and that “satan and those witches have no power.”
Jezebel stated after Charlie Kirk’s death that the article was published on September 8, and the outlet condemned the shooting in the strongest terms. They clarified, “We do not endorse, encourage, or excuse political violence of any kind.”
Charlie Kirk, a prominent conservative figure, had recently appeared alongside President Donald Trump at a rally in Phoenix, Arizona, highlighting his close ties to the president.
The revelations from Priestess Lilin add a chilling new dimension to the circumstances surrounding his assassination, showing the strange intersection of political commentary, social media influence, and occult practices.
