Julia Alexander of Polygon wrote that The Witch "asks people to try and understand what life would have been like for a family of devout Christians living in solitude, terrified of what may happen if they go against the word of God". [69] In The Atlantic, Alissa Wilkinson stated that many films featured at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival— The Witch, along with Last Days in the Desert, Don Verdean, and I Am Michael—reveal a "resurgence of interest in the religious", and described The Witch as "a chilling circa-1600 story of the devil taking over a devout, Scripture-quoting family". [70] Eve Tushnet commented in an article in TAC, which was also published in First Things, that The Witch 's view of witchcraft is "not revisionist" and further said the film is "pervaded by the fear of God. There are occasional references to His mercy but only as something to beg for, not something to trust in".

Eggers, who lived in New Hampshire, was inspired to write the film by his childhood fascination with witches and frequent visits to the Plimoth Plantation as a schoolboy. After unsuccessfully pitching films that were "too weird, too obscure", Eggers realized that he would have to make a more conventional film. [15] He said at a Q&A, "If I'm going to make a genre film, it has to be personal and it has to be good." [15] Director Alfonso Cuarón read the screenplay in 2013, saying it made him "more than anything, curious." [16] The production team worked extensively with British and American museums, as well as consulting experts on 17th-century British agriculture. [17] Eggers wanted the set constructed to be as historically accurate as possible, and therefore brought in a thatcher and a carpenter from Virginia and Massachusetts, respectively, who had the proper experience building in the style of the film's period.
