Enid Nightshade
Enid Nightshade is a fictional character from The Worst Witch books by Jill Murphy. She is best known for being a wild practical joker and is best friends with Mildred Hubble and Maud Moonshine and, like Mildred and Maud, has a strong rivalry with Ethel Hallow and Drusilla Paddock.
== Enid Nightshade in the books ==
Enid first appears in the second book of the series, The Worst Witch Strikes Again where she transfers to Miss Cackle's Academy in the Summer Term of Mildred's first year. She is described as having "''hair the colour of milky tea''" worn in a thick plait secured by a black hair ribbon and, despite not being fat, "''there seemed to be an awful lot of her''". Much to the chagrin of both Maud and Miss Hardbroom, Mildred is assigned by Miss Cackle to look after Enid. This causes Maud to break off her friendship with Mildred and go off in a jealous huff. Enid, at first, appears to be dull and boring but turns out to be a wild practical joker. Throughout the second book, she gets Mildred into trouble without owning up, such as deliberately singing out of tune in a chanting lesson with Miss Bat and making Mildred burst out laughing, turning her black cat into a monkey, and putting a spell on Mildred's pole, causing her to soar through the air and land into Miss Hardbroom's study. Enid matures at the end of the book where she actually becomes friends with both Mildred and Maud. In all the other books, Enid mainly acts as a voice-of-reason to Mildred.
In the audiobook versions of the series, narrator Miriam Margolyes reads Enid with a Welsh accent (Enid being originally a Welsh name), although it is unknown if Murphy intended the character to be Welsh.
