Apparent hex put on Charlie Kirk before death exposed.
Something unsettling has come to light in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s death — and it involves a witch, a hex, and a story that’s now sparking viral outrage.
Charlie Kirk’s death confirmed.
The Turning Point USA co-founder was fatally shot in the neck while speaking at Utah Valley University about gun violence.
Medics rushed to save him, but despite desperate attempts, Kirk was later pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.
Authorities launched a swift manhunt for the killer, intensifying the national conversation about political violence.
The Jezebel article explained.
Earlier this week, news outlet Jezebel stirred controversy by hiring an ‘Etsy witch’ to place a curse on far-right commentator Charlie Kirk.
The story, published on September 8, detailed how the publication allegedly paid for hexes meant to disrupt Kirk’s daily life.
Originally credited to a bylined journalist, the piece was updated with an editor’s note and listed simply as ‘by Jezebel.’
The article described paying witches on Etsy to cast “make everyone hate him” spells along with other minor curses.
The writer insisted: “I’m not calling on dark forces to cause him harm. I just want him to wake up with an inexplicable zit.”
The piece added: “I want his podcast microphone to malfunction every time he hits record… to ruin his day with the collective feminist power of the Etsy coven.”
The journalist behind the piece wrote: “So, did my Etsy curses work? Time will tell… For now, we can only trust in the timing of the great unknown.”
“And to you, Mr. Kirk: May the rash come swiftly,” she added, keeping her darkly comedic tone intact.
Social media erupted, with users both shocked and jokingly asking for contact info for the Etsy witch.
The story quickly became one of Jezebel’s most-shared pieces, fueled by disbelief over the real-world timing.
Etsy witch’s statement revealed.
Now, Priestess Lilin, one of the witches involved, has provided a statement to the Metro newspaper about the hexes.
Lilin runs the StrixSisters Etsy account alongside Leamashtu, whose expertise lies in malefic, or “black,” magic.
Priestess Lilin explained she practices “benefic magic,” focusing on love, abundance, healing, and divination.
Meanwhile, Leamashtu specializes in curses, obsession spells, and pact-making rituals, according to Lilin.
“A person’s life and death always has weight, and we do not celebrate the loss of life,” Lilin said.
“Many of us believe spells, magic, and curses are real and can bring profound change, whether psychological or metaphysical.”
She added, “As sisters, we have dealt with things that defy logic; magic is very real to us.”
“While we cannot claim literal responsibility for Mr. Kirk’s death, we affirm the magic we work with is effective,” Lilin stated.
She continued, “When you work in alignment with collective energy, it can manifest in unthinkable ways.”
Lilin ended with, “We hope that sums up our stance on this matter. Thank you for visiting our shoppe.”
Editor’s note added.
Jezebel updated the article to include a note condemning the shooting and stating the outlet does not endorse political violence.
Josh Jackson, president of Paste Media Group, which owns Jezebel, clarified the intent was satirical.
“The article was a tongue-in-cheek exploration of people selling hexes on Etsy, intended as a satirical response to Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric over the years,” Jackson told Variety.
Jackson stressed, “The writer was clear that she didn’t want real harm to come to Kirk. What happened is tragic and becoming all too commonplace.”
Bizarre timing of hex stuns public.
Charlie Kirk’s death has left both his supporters and critics reeling, with speculation swirling about the eerie timing of the Jezebel hex.
What began as a satirical stunt has now collided with real-world tragedy, sparking fierce debate about responsibility in media.
The witchcraft community insists magic is real but not to blame, while investigators continue their manhunt for Kirk’s killer.
One thing is certain — the bizarre entanglement of satire, sorcery, and political violence has cemented this as one of the most viral controversies of the year.
