also the father of the holiday Bobunk (a holiday Salem erased in his younger years). His clue to the family secret was a picture of Robert E. Lee. Aunt Vesta Spellman: Sabrina's Aunt Vesta (played by Raquel Welch) appeared in the season one episode "Third Aunt From the Sun". She lives in the Pleasure Dome in the Other Realm. She appeared disguised as a substitute teacher after she gave Mr. Pool a twenty-four-hour bug—which turns out to be a real giant bug that terrorizes Mr. Pool. After class, she introduced herself to Sabrina, and took her on a shopping spree. In Paris, Vesta told Sabrina that while Hilda and Zelda enjoyed living on Earth, she herself could not stand mortals for too long.

Sabrina bravely stood up to Aunt Irma (which nobody else has ever done), and Irma removed her spell; when Sabrina confronted her, she mentioned that she was busy frying her brother-in-law. When her daughter Phyllis told a mortal that she was a witch, Irma trapped her daughter in a snow globe. She appeared in two more episodes (Season Six's The Arrangement and Season Seven's A Fish Tale). The casting of Barbara Eden is a reference to her role of Jeannie in I Dream of Jeannie.

In the later years, when the Witches Council were modernized, she decided to become the leader of the new Council (which nobody dared to say no, plus her befitting status as one of Other Realm's most powerful witches). Now, her occupation is the Head of the Witches Council, Ruler of
