This interesting little plant is called deadly nightshade or belladonna. It has been used as an ingredient in makeup, as medicine and even as a poison. If ingested it creates powerful hallucinations. 

So called witches would crush the berry and mix it with tallow and rub it into their thighs so that it would be absorbed into the femoral artery. This then would give them the sensation of flying, or astral projection.

They would meet up this way with other witches who also flew in on their broomsticks (the handle infused with nightshade and tallow).

And that is the story of the witch and her broom...and learning to fly....
