'Chilling Adventures of Sabrina': Zelda Spellman is the Miranda Priestly of the witching world

Only in a very countable number of scenes will you see Zelda shed her tough facade and lay bare her maternal soul towards her loved ones

Dressed head-to-toe in black, holding a golden cigarette pipe and exhaling a puff while looking straight through her dark glasses is the intimidating aunt of Sabrina - Zelda Spellman. Almost channeling Morticia Addams from the 'The Addams Family,' Zelda Spellman is a "foreboding" character according to Miranda Otto, the Australian actress, who plays the character.

In stark contrast to Hilda's sunny side, Zelda is an ardent believer of the Church of the Night. Her nose is up in the air as she sniffs the mischief of her teenage niece and her ears are sharp to keep check of what misguided information Hilda feeds Sabrina, while her position is rooted in the chair reading a newspaper. Hilda goes about the kitchen serving her, and the only time we see Zelda actively helping out in the Spellman household is when she needs to please the Dark Lord.
