A spectator witch is a witch that retains the modifications of a spectator villager. They are found in the warden arena in a mine with eternal lightning storm where they appear as the audience of the warden boss fight. It was introduced in 25w14craftmine.
Spawning
Spectator villagers transform into witches in warden arenas that generate in mines or special mines containing both the Warden Boss Fight ingredient and the Eternal Lightning ingredient.
They do not face the stage when spawned until the world is reloaded.

A witch has an 8.5% chance of dropping a potion, if it is killed while drinking it. The chance is increased by 1% for every level of Looting. The following potions can be drank by a witch and can therefore be dropped:
5XP experience is dropped when kill credit is given to the player.
Behavior
The mob is permanently idle. It spectates the warden boss fight and makes comments throughout the encounter. It is immune to all forms of damage from Survival players but can be killed by a Creative player. It does not fall if the block beneath it was destroyed.
While in the arena, spectator witches make sounds such as starting calls or cheers as they observe the player’s encounter with the warden after it has been awakened. They cheer again when the player defeats the warden.
Like regular witches, spectator witches have a chance to drink a potion of Fire Resistance when set on fire and a potion of Healing when not at full health.
