Nancy Downs

Intro She is a troubled girl who practices witchcraft to try and improve her life. After forming a coven with Sarah Bailey, Bonnie Harper, and Rochelle Zimmerman, Nancy gains magical abilities. However, her desire for more power leads her to invoke the spirit of Manon, making her a mighty witch and a dangerous and unstable one. Nancy has lived most of her life in a run-down trailer park. At some point, Nancy became interested in witchcraft and began practicing the Craft, hoping to empower herself and escape her disadvantaged life. She befriended two fellow outcasts, Bonnie and Rochelle, and together, they aspired to become witches. However, none of their spells worked because they lacked a fourth witch to make a complete circle. Nancy is a troubled and rebellious girl, becoming increasingly unstable and self-absorbed as the film progresses. Nancy could often be rude, aggressive, and anti-social. She had few friends and didn't seem to trust people much; however, considering her upbringing and how her peers generally treated her, it is hardly surprising. Nancy does show kindness towards those she cares for. Nancy does have a somewhat questionable sense of morality, seeing nothing wrong with stealing, being disrespectful towards authority figures and her mother, or ordering around her friends. She rarely listens to advice and can be brash and arrogant. Nancy becomes increasingly power-hungry and detached from reality.
