In folklore, the witching hour or devil's hour is a time of night that is associated with supernatural events, whereby witches, demons and ghosts are thought to appear and be at their most powerful. Definitions vary, and include the hour immediately after midnight, and the time between 3:00 am and 4:00 am. The term now has a widespread colloquial and idiomatic usage that is associated with human physiology and behaviour to more superstitious phenomena such as luck.

  • في المعنى الحرفي الحديث ل«منتصف الليل» يُشير مصطلح ساعة السحر إلى الوقت من الليل ما بين الساعة 03:00 إلى 04:00 صباحًا تقريبًا. وفي هذا الوقت، يعتقد الناس أن مخلوقات مثل (السحرة والشياطين والأشباح) تظهر وتكون في أقصى قوتها، ويكون السحر الأسود أكثر فعالية. ومن الممكن أيضًا استخدام المصطلح للدلالة على أي فترة عشوائية من الوقت تتسم بسوء الحظ أو من المُتوقَّع أن يحدُث بها أمر سيئ بدرجة كبيرة (على سبيل المثال، طفل يبكي، أو تحطم كمبيوتر، أو تقلبات البرصة، أو جرائم، أو أحداث خارقة للطبيعة، وما إلى ذلك).

  • La hora de las brujas, según el folclore europeo, corresponde al momento en que se cree que aparecen y son más poderosas las criaturas sobrenaturales, como brujas, demonios y fantasmas. También se cree que a esta hora la magia negra es más eficaz.​ Suele ser a la media noche​​ o el «tiempo a mitad de la noche cuando se dice que las cosas mágicas ocurren».​ (es)
  • Nella cultura anglosassone l'ora del diavolo, o ora delle streghe, è un periodo della notte associato nel folklore popolare a eventi soprannaturali, in cui si pensa che streghe, demoni e fantasmi appaiano e siano al loro massimo potere. È indicata anche come "ora del diavolo" come inversione beffarda dell'orario in cui si suppone sia morto Gesù, alle 15:00. Esiste una letteratura in psicologia che suggerisce che le esperienze di apparizione e le presenze percepite siano più comuni tra le 2 e le 4 del mattino, corrispondenti al picco, alle 3 del mattino, della quantità di melatonina nel corpo.
