Suspiria

In the German Autumn of 1977, Susie Bannion, a young American woman from a Mennonite family in Ohio, arrives in West Berlin to audition for the Markos Tanzgruppe. A student there, Patricia Hingle, has concurrently disappeared after revealing to her psychotherapist, Dr. Josef Klemperer, that the school's matrons are a coven of witches who worship The Three Mothers, a trio of witches who once roamed Earth, spreading darkness, tears, and sighs. The witches are known individually as Mother Tenebrarum, Mother Lachrymarum, and Mother Suspiriorum. Susie befriends a wealthy classmate, Sara Simms, as her dancing quickly begins to attract attention from the head artistic director and choreographer, Madame Blanc.
