One of the many things Sims 3 witches can do, and tend to do a lot, is conjure poisoned apples.
Sims who eat poisoned apples fall asleep. They don't die unless you use mods.
If you, like me, find this disappointing, as it's structured in the game, here are some.

Conjure Apple - Makes an Apple to eat or Convert. Failure makes a poison apple that puts a Sim to sleep much like Snow White. | Play with Magic - this is a basic training skill that will gradually drain Magic Power while giving experience. |
| 1 | Conversion Ritual - Turn a collectible into one of another type. | Good Luck Charm - Gives a Sim a +5 feeling lucky moodlet. Expect the opposite should it backfire. |
| 2 | Fire Blast - Set an area of ground ablaze or singe a Sim. | Ice Blast - Freeze a Sim, giving a -10 moodlet. There's a chance they'll be frozen solid. This can also put out fires when you target the spot of ground the flames occupy. |
| 3 | Upgrade Appliances - Cast on upgradable objects, behaves just like Handiness, allowing you to choose. Use this on a Wardrobe to turn it into a rabbit hole adventure similar to the catacombs under the mausoleum. Any number of crazy things can happen while traveling another dimension... | Spellcasting Duel - Find the duel interaction on the first menu when clicking a Sim. Winning gives you a +10 moodlet, losing -10. The Sims battling it out are a little entertaining to watch but it serves no deep purpose. |
| 4 | Love Charm - The next Sim to interact with one blessed with this charm will jump high in relationship standing and become a romantic interest. You can easily turn this to a long-standing friendship with a little friendly chat. | Toadification Curse - Turns a Sim into a toad until kissing them or using a cure potion to revert. |
| 5 | Haunting Curse - Summon a ghost to haunt another Sim | Better Witch Animations |
| 6 | Hunger, Bladder and Hygiene Charms - Boost these three metrics on another Sim or your own with the flick of a wand, if you don't drain them instead! | |
| 7 | Hunger, Bladder, and Hygiene Curses - Drain these metrics on a targeted Sim. Failure means your Sim suffers the drain. Be careful cursing a Sim's bladder in public with a bad wand. | |
| 8 | Sunlight Charm - Removes Zombification curse and Pestilence. The latter grants immunity to the disease for two days after the cure. | Pestilence Curse - begins a 1 day countdown to cure the Sim with sweet honey, spicy chili pepper or the Sunlight Charm. If the Sim isn't cured, they will suffer a nasty illness and -30 moodlet for 2 full days. This can spread from Sim to Sim. |
| 9 | Restoration Ritual - This will clean the entire house, and fix any broken plumbing, electronics, etc. Backfiring can cause trash to appear all over the lot and many broken objects. | |
| 10 | Reanimation Ritual - cast on a gravestone or urn that houses a ghost that has not moved on to the afterlife. The Sim will rise up as a Zombie and potentially turn others into the undead. | |
The fairy dust just makes a Sim float around like a fairy for a little bit and gives a positive moodlet. increased traveling speed
Ideally, buy a Broom Stand first. Otherwise, don't think about where your Witch keeps his broom. You can buy better brooms in Outdoor - Transportation. The best broom, the Zoomsweeper Pegasus, costs only $455 and gives speed 7. Compare that to the price of a VFN Kompensator (car) at $36,000 that only gives speed 6.
Use the best wand you can afford. At 20,000 Lifetime Happiness Points, you can purchase the Magic Hands Lifetime Reward. This guarantees your Sim's spells will never fail.
