Nollywood actress Etinosa Idemudia has revealed the mental toll that playing a witch in a movie series took on her, leading her to seek therapy to detach from the character’s persona.

In an interview with Punch, the actress shared that acting roles can sometimes leave lasting effects on performers, citing her experience playing a witch in the series Blood of Enogie for three months.

“The role an actor gets is a function of how the casting director perceives them. It’s difficult to explain, but sometimes, after playing certain characters, it rubs off on you,” she said.

Etinosa admitted that after portraying the witch, she felt the need to seek therapy to “come out of that witchcraft persona.” She acknowledged the real impact such roles can have, adding, “As funny as it may sound, it is real.

There have been cases where actors fall in love with their on-screen romantic interests and even marry them in real life.”
