Frequently asked questions

How do I summon a Witch in Minecraft?
Enable cheats or use OP, open chat with T or /, paste /summon minecraft:witch ~ ~ ~ (Java) or /summon witch ~ ~ ~ (Bedrock), and press Enter. The Witch spawns at your feet.
Does the summon Witch command work on Bedrock Edition?
Yes — use /summon witch ~ ~ ~. Bedrock uses the same entity IDs without the "minecraft:" prefix and does not support NBT arguments like custom names in the summon command.
Why does my summoned Witch despawn?
Mobs despawn when no players are nearby. On Java Edition, add {PersistenceRequired:1b} to the summon command to prevent it. On Bedrock, use a name tag on the mob after summoning.
