Locasta Oz Patched Guide

Here’s a review of the character from the Oz universe, specifically as she appears in L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and subsequent adaptations. Review: Locasta – The Good Witch of the North (But Often Overlooked) Rating: ★★★☆☆ (3.5/5)

In the pantheon of Oz’s witches, Locasta (also known as the Good Witch of the North) is something of an enigma. She appears early in L. Frank Baum’s original 1900 book, greeting Dorothy after her house lands in Oz and crushing the Wicked Witch of the East. However, for most people, she’s been almost entirely erased from popular culture by the 1939 MGM film, which merged her role with Glinda the Good Witch of the South. locasta oz
