  4. I can create witch house in just four steps:
    1. Smoke spice for 2 months.
    2. Don't end your miserable mental existence.
    3. Take your horrifying thoughts and turn them into music
    4. Add the music to images that horrified you while on spice (or while recovering from it for the next 10 months).
