Storyline
Plot Summary |
Confederate Sergeant Joseph Paradine goes into the nearby town and finds that the Union forces there seem to be frozen in time. He learns from an old man that being a male witch he cast a spell on them using his book of magic. The old man sees the Yankees as invaders and is keen that the South win the war. Anticipating that he is going to die by sunset, he gladly gives his book of witchcraft to Paradine to support the cause. When he returns to camp, Paradine's commanding officer is far more concerned about the battle they will enter into the next morning than about the book his Sergeant has in his possession.

Goofs | Dauger, a Confederate soldier, refers to the battle of "Second Manassas" when he is describing the Second Battle of Bull Run. While Union soldiers named battles after nearby rivers and streams, the Confederates named them based on the nearest town. "Manassas" is correct in this context. See more » |
